I linked here from Renee's Roots, always a good starting spot for quality time wasting. I was reading what you wrote about Red Barn which I found interesting. I've yet to go there, mainly because I work at a different nursery on weekends. If you ever venture north come visit Farmer's in Leander. We're very small but have nice set of loyal customers who like our selection of natives, organic supplies, and selected ornamentals. We're just up 183 from HC Water Gardens, another quality stop in the area. Hope your prickly pear did okay in the freeze...I had a whole batch of rooted pads get killed last year, but my mother plant survived, barely, and seemed to weather this year's freeze somewhat better for some reason. Have a great spring! Greetings Brianna. I linked here from Renee’s Roots, always a good starting spot for quality time wasting. I was reading what you wrote about Red Barn which I found interesting.

I've never thought about getting rock from a cemetery before. Interesting idea! <em>Yeah, it works well for both parties, I think. It's certainly easier on the budget than paying for landscaping stones. -Brianna</em> Neat idea for the circle bed! I’ve never thought about getting rock from a cemetery before. Interesting idea!

Yeah, it works well for both parties, I think. It’s certainly easier on the budget than paying for landscaping stones.

What's the diameter on your new circle bed, Brianna? Thanks for the link too. <em>It's 16 ft. across. I've never planted such a large space before--it's a little intimidating.

Thanks for the link too.

It’s 16 ft. across. I’ve never planted such a large space before–it’s a little intimidating. But I’m really looking forward to it!
