Gardening, in a lot of ways, is a metaphor. <br /><br />I was just thinking the other day that I wish I knew what all the weeds were. I want to know if any can be of use, medicinally or for eating. I would love to take that course. Maybe when my youngest goes to school I will check into it.Lorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16945911444997924849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8986801201760240722.post-56868793387051208632009-05-14T10:07:00.000-04:002009-05-14T10:07:00.000-04:00Hi,

Not very original of me but there it is. As such, however, I love that you have not eradicated my beloved California Poppy that used to bloom so profusely on the hillsides here that they took on an orange tint. Now, sadly, they have been picked, built on and otherwise eliminated to where they aren't as plentiful as in my youth. Thank you for sharing such wonderful knowledge with us today. No wonder sometimes these "weeds" are just called "wildflowers." They bloom wherever they land!<br /><br />BTW, you're right, the fountain in AZ does look like a wedding cake! Good eye!

We have a high retention rate of MGs in our counties thanks to a highly motivated Extension educator. I've found I'm really interested in turf and unfortunately now I've learned the names of all the weeds that grow in turf. But, I've also learned all the specific pesticides to deal with them. :-)Louisenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8986801201760240722.post-69410668603533738602009-05-13T15:04:00.000-04:002009-05-13T15:04:00.000-04:00Mary, I was a Master Gardener for years before wor...Mary, I was a Master Gardener for years before work got in the way.
