I was secretly rooting for ...Happy New Year Rose!<br /> <br />I was secretly rooting for a Japanese Maple - looking forward to seeing which one you pick. <br /><br />I've never been big on NY resolutions, but admire those who set new year goals, especially when they're realistic and attainable. <br /><br />I was amazed how productive my little veggie garden was last year, and hope you and Diane will have similar successes with yours. You've definitely done your homework, and that really helps.<br /><br />You are very lucky having such a convenient and free source of mulch!garden girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13284047851881823280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6641149820652708910.post-17420372958714096292009-12-28T07:42:42.074-08:002009-12-28T07:42:42.074-08:00Rose, Excellent garden resolutions!

I figure containers have worked decently so far, why not expand the operation?<br /><br />MMD--There's nothing wrong with spontaneity! Notice how I didn't make any earth-shattering resolutions to change my life, much for the same reason--my follow-through is not predictable. <br /><br />Rose--I for one would love to read about your resolutions! And don't feel bad about the compost pile; mine is equally embarrassing and also doesn't make it on the blog too often for that reason! :) But as long as it's working you should be proud. Mine is still a half-decomposed and now frozen mess.Ramble on Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18407299834073788678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6641149820652708910.post-41316631151701160082009-12-27T17:29:51.444-08:002009-12-27T17:29:51.444-08:00Lucky you--free mulch!!

This would have to be one of my gardening resolutions for this year, too; what a difference mulching has made in the garden, especially saving me time and energy in weeding. I'm so glad you picked a Japanese maple. Such gorgeous trees, I know you will be happy with it.<br /><br />Actually I had thought about doing a post about resolutions, too, but something tells me I won't get around to doing it:) I do have many, but probably at the top of my list is to finally build an enclosure for my compost pile. I'm too embarrassed to even show it on my blog:)Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01384059342847120951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6641149820652708910.post-63620173198301222732009-12-27T14:55:12.401-08:002009-12-27T14:55:12.401-08:00Yes, yes, a Japanese Maple - I'm so excited fo...Yes, yes, a Japanese Maple - I'm so excited for you! (virtually jumping up & down) I don't make any resolutions because I'm too lazy to follow through. That didn't sound good. How about, I prefer to be spontaneous? Not that there's anything wrong with resolutions. I think they are great for other people, and yours are good ones.Mr. McGregor's Daughterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05911409327006498766noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6641149820652708910.post-9596501872812115532009-12-27T12:27:26.769-08:002009-12-27T12:27:26.769-08:00It never occurred to me to make gardening resoluti...It never occurred to me to make gardening resolutions for 2010 but now I plan to! I think yours are ambitious but doable, exactly how resolutions should be. I also hope to dive into edible gardening this year, which may be a big disaster but hey, it's worth a shot, right? Can't wait to see which Japanese maple you choose! Happy New Year!Dianehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12589473046882217457noreply@blogger.com
