    Hello everyone. I am Linda, from Del Rio, Texas. My main garden has been angel trumpets, but I love all flowers. Just some of them will not grow in this heat or soil. So all of my beds are raised beds, with miracle grow soil. This year, I will be working on collecting seeds for anything that will climb. I am trying to cover my front yard fence with morning glories, trumpet vines, moon flowers, maybe even some gourds!

    Welcome from Washington state. Gosh, Texas is a big state, but Texans could almost have their own formum with so many from there. Hope you enjoy the Stew as much as I do. :-D Happy gardening and good luck with your vines. Can't wait to see photos.

    Hi from Nebraska! Watch out with those Trumpet vines !! :p When they get established, they will take over!!! They are so pretty, and the flowers are great for hummingbirds and butterflies, but so very invasive! I guess a lot of vines can have this characteristic. I love em anyway :stew2:
