Hey Roger, Wow, you have a great start. Isn't it great to see the beginnings of new life as spring approaches. Does anyone else have some early starts going. Don't forget to visit "Flip Flop-Is it summer or winter" Remember those down under are having fall very soon. Right now they still have summer heat. http://community.adlandpro.com/forums/thread/579833.aspx

Hi Mary

Thanks for the invitation to your garden forum.  I love flowers of all kinds, as we have gotten older we changed our garden using succulents and stones to make it easier us.

We also have a vegetable garden that my husband finds very enjoyable.

Warm hugs Elizabeth

Hi Elizabeth, As we get older it is necessary at times to change the way we garden to make accomadations to our limited movement. I have seen raised gardens where frames or higher mounds help with the bending over problems. I have also seen troughs dug to make pathways through the garden. So the answer to limited bending over abiltiy can be handled by raising the planting area or lowering the pathway. Changing the types of plants as you have done will mean less maintainence but you still enjoy the beauty. Thanks for your contribution.
