    I had my name...Sherry from Wisconsin...and a link to my pictures of my gardens and the borders or curbing I have around my flower beds. I post pictures on their website and they used my pictures that I had put in for an e-mail letter to all the people that sign up for it on their website.


    I am sorry, I don't know how to post it so you can go to the link..



    I was just so proud to have him pick me and along with another lady Sue from Ontario..Sherry ( I am also known as petunias on there too)

    Congratulations on the honour, Sherry.
    I have seen fotos of your gardening skills in the past, so it seems a well-derserved mention.
    You're becoming famous.
    This is GREAT news.

    What an honour Sherry although, like Sjoerd, it doesn't surprise me in the least as you take some fantastic photographs and your garden is lovely.

    Many congratulations!! :D

    Erm..... does this mean I have to curtsey to you if I ever meet you? ;)

    Congratulations Sherry. From the pictures you post of your garden, I can easily see why you got the honor. Just to think, 'we knew you when...' ;)

    No, no I won't be in a book...I am in an e-mail that gets sent out to all the people that sign up for the Garden notes area of Better Homes & Gardens.. You can go to the Better Homes & Gardens site and look at the gardening photo albums...I am also known as petunia there so my pictures when you point your mouse on them will say petunia..and you can click on pictures and go to the albums,of course I am in the gardening section...I don't think we will ever see a ranch house in a Better Homes & Gardens book...but this is about my gardens and borders or edging around them...Thank you...Sherry

    That's great Sherry, it's always great to get recognised for your work. I wonder how many people it got sent out to.

    I'm curious, did you try to sign up as Petunia when you first found us? I have a trivia itch that needs scratching :)
