My Garderner's Chores

We managed to get the boxwood garden trimmed again.  That's the final time for the year!

Hallelujah!

I wish I had more formal hedged gardens.  Also, I wish I had a gardener!  If I had a gardener I'd make him trim hedges until his fingers bleed.  Here are some great examples of what I'd make my Gardener maintain.

I'm taking applications.

  2. I do believe you need Edward Scissorhand at your disposal.

    And may I just admit a hint of jealosie....that you could be done with a garden. Our green guzzlers take 365 days of handouts!!
