"Cottage Gardening. What does your mind picture when you hear those words? A lush, pefumed, and productive plot near the doors of your home? A tiny, fragrant, garden surrounding your patio? Or a few large pots of herbs and fragrant flowers on an apartment balcony? Any of these plantings can have the cottage spirit, and anyone who tends them can be a cottage gardener. Come join us and see if the cottage style garden speaks to you. We will enjoy your thoughts, and we will enjoy sharing our thoughts and plans for our own gardens with you." Yahoo groups are a cross between a discussion forum, a mailing list, and a website. You need to register with Yahoo to take full advantage of the site, such as the links page and the photos page, though you can sign up for the mailing list part without registering with Yahoo.

I'm always pleased when the garden is neat and tidy. That's when it looks like a garden. Nature is plants and the complicated ecosystems that support them. But even the most natural of gardens is an unnatural arrangement of plants. We stamp our will upon the landscape, even those of us who prefer to work with nature. And often, like this weekend, nature stamps back. Maybe it's that dramatic tension between artfulness and chaos that keeps us coming back to the garden. Or maybe it's just the flowers and blue skies and finding two little snakes under a rock.

I garden in snow covered eastern North Dakota–shrub roses, daylilies and lilies are my favorites. My garden is “sleeping” under a cover of chopped leaves and snow. Anxious for SPRING!!
