Taking the title from my Grandmother, Marie Van Sickle's favorite painting, "The Prairie is my Garden", this is one of the last few days my plants will be inside. Yesterday I went to Norms' Nursery in Aurora after having my nails done in Brookings. That's another story for another day but, yes, I go to Brookings, home of SDSU, to get my nails done. Anyway ... Norm's son, Colin, is on the scene this year and he helped me untangle my Mandevilla ... There wasn't a lot going on except me, my Mandevilla, my gorgeous trailing Geranium, and my quest to get the best Stonecreep Sedum out from under the snow. I am trying to get as much in as possible as early as possible for ground cover as well as a choking device for the friggen crab grass. Grandma "Sickle", where are you when I need you ??? And that is also another story for another day !
