Veggie Garden 2011

Somebody saaaave me...from my unrelenting impulse to buy plants -- and let them eventually wither away to nothingness. Am I alone on this? Anyone? My pauvre gingko biloba tree finally gave up last year after sitting in a state of pure potted neglect for lo, [I can't say it] years. It let out a few stunted leaves, then wilted and died. I'm a monster! And yes, I am hunting for a replacement. I will refuse to actually buy it until I have space and sunlight for it, meaning that a few plum trees must be sheared and/or hacked down. Where's that electric chainsaw that has never seen light of day?

Spring has sprung, grass has riz

...wonder where the sunshine iz? C'mon, it's April and we're still having hail & funnel clouds? In the PNW? Whut the duck?!
