Door number one or door number two? Decisions decisions! The seed catalogs always come in the mail the first week of January to give a lady time to figure things out. Flagstone or mosaic walkway, three white birch trees with a water feature or a greenhouse addition to replace that eyesore of an unused golf green?
Well, I have three months to decide. Do it myself or hire it out? Door number one may complain a little but the work will be professional. Door number two will be quick, fun to look at, a bit awkward in small spaces so I may re-think the creeping thyme and tulips.
Seed catalogs are dangerous! They're kind of like pornography in which the photos don't match up with real life. How many times have I fantasized over the pretty photos of gorgeous weed-free gardens, which appear magically without much effort. The reality tends to be different. (Chaos!)
ReplyDeleteI've wasted a lot of money on plant that didn't survive or live up to my dreams, but it was fun dreaming.
Hilarious photos!
