About This Group

    I am an accidental gardner. A few years ago I had a volunteer to redo my flower beds and create an awesome garden. My herbs grow in a whiskey barrel. How fun is that?

    Gardening with Red and Purple

    A few years ago I discovered a great red and purple flower.  It is called Bat-face Cuphea.  Google it and you will see how beautiful it is.

    The bush grows about 2 feet tall and 2 feet wide, so plant them accordingly.

    I was curious to know if anyone planted winter vegetables. This year I didn't plant anything. My spot designed for vegetables needed some work. I bought my better half a Mantis tiller, hint hint.

    In another spot I did plant ornamental kale; the green and also the white variety. They usually become huge and stunning.

    Other than this, I didn't do anything special for winter.

    What did you do?
