Who does n’t bed a sound before and after ! ? Patty Eckles from Hollywood , South Carolina has a cracking taradiddle to show !
" We bought our home in Charleston , SC in 2007 . The back yard was a clean ticket . Nothing was planted there . Coming from Maryland , where I had the most gorgeous gardens , I started to engraft at our new home plate . Planting in the south is so dissimilar I found . I love my beautiful flower beds I had up north , but down to the south , they just do n’t bloom as well . It ’s way too red-hot in the summer for them . They do n’t spread or last long , so I had the most playfulness feel what to engraft here . And , wow thing grow fast . I ca n’t believe it ’s only been 8 years and my Din Land is replete ! I have nowhere else to establish anything , or do I ? "
