She also was eating grapes off the grape vine till I discovered that. She picks the raspberries on the bottom of the bushes and we pick the top. She ate the hostas to the ground so had to get rid of those. After her dog food I zap a few frozen green beans or pieces of frozen squash in the micro and give to her. She looks forward to them!

I have one meager patch that comes up here -- but they don't bloom. They probably need more sun, and I will get around to moving them one of these days. <br />It seems to me that you're doing a fine job with your garden! I had dreams of having a vegetable garden -- something my parents always had -- but I haven't made it a priority. This year I have green beans up, and that's all.dianefaithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07229979968118248563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8258071793517912248.post-6791927356883471342012-05-01T18:01:04.050-07:002012-05-01T18:01:04.050-07:00Hi Elizabeth, The blind leading the blind! haha ...Hi Elizabeth, The blind leading the blind! haha I only know what Annie told me about the thyme clippings and also what I wrote in my notes that Geraniums repel white cabbage butterflies, nasturtians are good for cabbge and that mint, sage and rosemary are enemies of cabbage moths. Do you have the book or can you get it from your libary called "Carrots Love Tomatoes" by Louise Riotte. I look in there sometimes to see who likes what! lol Do you have a blog? Annie has a wonderful gardening blog! Thanks for visiting and come again.

I saw the last post about putting clippings in the garden. Can I use any of my herbs that way? I threw some basil and cilantro clippings I think in there the other day just as a guess. No idea what I'm doing. My carrots are growing well and I have little green sprouts on my tomato plants.Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07688326725971129386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8258071793517912248.post-85907193341203660222012-05-01T16:47:15.861-07:002012-05-01T16:47:15.861-07:00Hi Annie, Thank you for responding so soon.
