Gardner in Her Element

That would be a great National Graphic or Discovery Channel show...them following my Mami while she wanders in the gardens she has planted mumbling and more often than not letting out a squeal and "oohhh my goodness look at this BEAUTIFUL flower!!!" ooorrrr "look at the size of that friggin rhubarb...it is HUMONGUOUS!!!"

But I will give credit where credit is due she made an amazing garden.  Cause in her words "its a great mix of spring, summer, late summer and fall mix..."  I picked out roses and a few bulbs and banned her from going to Lowe's discount area and threatened to burn flowers if she bought more over.

The Columbines are "fresh and just needed water" and the dahlias  "were the first ones that landed at Home Depot and aren't they puuurrrttttyyy!"

So yea...I will own up to my 10 and the lawn cause that was 70 bags of dirt, 2 bags of water and a shiz ton of water.

There's a whole lot of "mira mira...ttttaaaaaaddaaaa" and braggin rights going on at the Barr Casa.   Time to go pick some flowers.  Thank you American Meadows, Spring Hill, Lowe's, Home Depot and Zulily for feeding this addiction of amazing!
