    Welcome to the Stew from central Texas! Where are you located? If you are overgrown with tree ferns, I'm quite sure you aren't anywhere near our farm!
    Very friendly, very helpful folks here. You'll like this place!

    Hi Mamagarden, welcome to GardenStew from north central Texas. Any photos of your overgrown garden you can share? At least building Rome was completed...building a garden is a never ending process but it's one we all love. ;)

    hello. Great Sunday morning to you all. I have been trying to post pics from my cell for a few days but I have been unsuccessful.
    This morning I was amazed that the ground hog is back. He/ she was busted dragging a bag of my potting soil away. D oyou believe this?

    Finally getting these pics out. Bear with me

    do not know if these are lilies I have a wild rose vine and poison ivy and maybe a grape not sure. All together with my juniper.
    I am year behind with the entire. This is only the back back garden I was sick last year and so wasn't able to do as much now I am in trouble. Please help. I need some ideas. I went in and started pulling but I have no clear direction here.
