Neighbours talking over the garden gate has long been a tradition. They share gardening tips, complain about the weather and pests yet are ever eager to discuss their gardens. That is what I had in mind when creating this blog. So stop by my garden gate to find out the latest happenings in my garden.

Happy Gardening!

Rogue Daisy

Rogue Daisy
July 9, 2010

An interesting thing happens after you rip out old garden beds.  Every once in awhile an old plant from the former bed reappears in the new garden bed or if the old bed was seeded/sodded through the grass.  A couple of days ago I discovered this pretty daisy poking through the now grass where a former garden bed was.  What really surprises me is this particular area was where we took out 6 large spreading evergreens so the chances of disrupting any plant left behind was quite high.  Despite that tulips, daffodils, crocuses and not daisies are popping up through the grass.  It is rather pretty!  I have to smile each time I discover one of these rogue plants.

Happy Gardening!
