Flower Gardening For The Love Of It!     

shed/greenhouse combination

I need to build a Garden Shed next spring.  It's still in the planning stages but I came across this cool picture of a shed/greenhouse combination in my search on the internet.  It's not 100% what I want but it's very close.  Planning a greenhouse is a lot harder than one would first imagine.  I've discovered that there are a multitude of shapes, sizes and styles.   it's just a matter of what you need and want.  I need storage.  I want a greenhouse.  A combination of the two would be just about perfect.  I think mine might have shingles and brick... not sure yet but it's an idea! 

Anyway, I've been looking around to see if there are any really cool things to offer you, and I found a bunch of things.  Most of them are on this home page.  The rest of the pages here are in even worse shape than my garden, but I'll get to them, don't worry, I'll get to them.  LOL

In my effort to do some updating here, I was shopping around my favourite garden sites, of which Brecks is one, and I came across this gorgeous lily.  There is no doubt about it, it's going in my garden next year.  I just placed the order and I don't care how much it costs.  I've been thinking about doing a Purple, Pink, Yellow themed garden, so this is the first addition.  This colour theme garden is going beside my shed when it gets built.  What I envision is going to be spectacular.

 Most of the gardening merchants I shop at and feature here on my site have % off  built right into the link.  I embed the code so that when you click on the picture or link, the discount is automatically calculated no matter what you buy from that site.  I learned a long time ago, that there's no sense buying online unless #1 - I can't get it around my home and #2 - I  can get it for less online. 

If I can get you a really sweet deal on whatever you need for your garden, then My job is done!!   Happy hunting.

This site covers planning, design, planting and maintaining your flower garden, with a few stories thrown in for good measure.

Bulbs

Now is the time to be planning your bulb garden for next year, keeping in mind that most bulbs are perennials and will flower year after year, which means you're getting good value for the dollars you spend.  For a well rounded bulb garden (spring, summer & fall) and additional value, be sure to check out bulb collections (of which the tulip collections are the most popular).

Woodpecker Feeder

Woodpeckers' instinctive feeding habits draw them to the unique design of this feeder. Two sturdy plastic panels display seeds, while several small feeding holes on each corner provide unique access that only woodpeckers will readily recognize.
Woodpeckers are among the most voracious insect-eating birds, so they're great to have around. Wood boring ants, beetles, caterpillars, larvae and eggs make up most of the woody's diet. But when insects are scarce, pecking at this feeder is like digging in tree bark!
