Hope her frenchies and chows leave said wildlife alone!WashingtonGardenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03950523974356540767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16905485.post-84886986838976804892007-08-22T14:41:00.000-04:002007-08-22T14:41:00.000-04:00Blair, there are a LOT of illegal plant activities...Blair, there are a LOT of illegal plant activities that one can get in trouble for (from patent infringement to smuggling of exotics from overseas). Res assured I am keeping my nose clean. Those women-prison movies from the '50s did their job well = I'm scared straight.<BR/> And yes, if you go whole hig with a wildlife habitat for your yard - mowing is indeed a thing of the past! Start by planting beds full of perennials/shrubs like coneflower, blackeyed susans, and coreopsis. Then keep expanding them until no lawn is left to deal with. One wayto remove a lot of lawn territory real fast is to dig your own small pond - and the wildlife will come flocking to your yard.WashingtonGardenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03950523974356540767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16905485.post-1567314622697435162007-08-22T13:58:00.000-04:002007-08-22T13:58:00.000-04:00Oh great, I didn't know that Martha had certified ...Oh great, I didn't know that Martha had certified her estate.

I'm a trifle concerned by the Martha Stewart comparison. Where will you be serving your sentence? Will you still be able to post updates here? I had no idea that insider trading on ornamental plants was illegal.<BR/><BR/>Somewhat more seriously (I'm always eager to learn something new), what's the significance of having your yard declared a "wildlife habitat"? (If it gets one out of mowing, I may want to sign up too!!)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16905485.post-9384325264985900422007-08-21T19:27:00.000-04:002007-08-21T19:27:00.000-04:00I DO wear a bra - though I definitely could use a ...I DO wear a bra - though I definitely could use a new wardrobe of them now that you mention it - some are probably older than Zac Efron.WashingtonGardenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03950523974356540767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16905485.post-43939918064438305102007-08-21T18:28:00.000-04:002007-08-21T18:28:00.000-04:00You haven't been running around sans foundation ga...You haven't been running around sans foundation garments have you? I think wearing a sturdy brassiere while shoveling and weeding is part of the qualifications for being a wildlife habitat. Don't want to scare away the birdies.<BR/><BR/>jbAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
