The ones still in the ground have bloomed so I should get them dug and in the basement. Please keep posting pictures. I will take some and give the disk to Mike and let him post mine. What do y'all want to see? Hayfield? Gardens? Cattle? Naked women? What?
MRJ said:Such impressive photo's! And garden stories! I'm jealous. Poor water or no water at all, combined with parching SD winds have limited my garden success. The yard looks great right now. Mostly native grass "lawn", too few trees and flowers, but I keep on trying.
Just heard of someone who filled some feed bunks with soil for a garden when the knees could tolerate gardening the old way. May be worth a try.
Has anyone tried the red plastic for tomatoes? It sounds interesting. I like mulch, and it is pretty hard to convince the men in the family to allow me to use it. They think it grows more weeds. My point is it makes the EXISTING weeds easier to pull.
Sure would like to hear more about the greenhouse in MT, especially how much it adds to your growing season, heat, siting (does it back up to a building, etc.).
I'm considering one on the south end of our garage, but wonder if a little corner in the garage itself would be better or not.

:clap: You two have a couple of the most beautiful gardens and yards I've seen. We have been working on our yard, and hope to someday have a nice one, but living in a pasture in rotten soil has definitely been a challenge. Thanks a million for posting the pictures.
Geez Hanta Yo, I felt very guilty for not making it up to your place on our little trek around MT, but now I'm not only feeling guilty, but very dissappointed too. Not only would it have been a treat to meet you and your family, and of course Corky, but to see your place and that awesome garden would have been a great treat too!
Great job gals, and thanks a million for posting pictures. Will you please post some updates and they "grow" along???
