But first, my name is Mary and I've been called contrary all my life ... and the result was that I was indeed contrary growing up! So the shoe fit (or I should say the saying fit!). Fortunately I grew up and learned to get along with people ;) And for the record, the answer is that my garden never grows well, I have a black thumb. After all the flowers I bought from a reputable nursery this year for Mother's Day died, I have made an agreement with myself: Never, ever, ever buy flowers to grow again. Only buy the cut kind in the grocery store - then when they die, you can just go back and buy another $7 bundle. No aggravation ;) But yours is gorgeous and I am very successful at enjoying it through your beautiful picture.<br />Mary Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00062785186374200980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8215717584988055006.post-19580253439845535632016-07-11T08:18:32.390-05:002016-07-11T08:18:32.390-05:00Your garden looks like a beautiful park!

We have had a few days in the 90's and I have to be very vigilant about water or the potted plants can be ruined very quickly.
