You're welcome any time, Sue.  You might not like it once June rolls around.  But Oct-May is heavenly, weather wise.

No good asking me Krissy! My Mom was really into gardening and I think I rebelled!! I had my garden landscaped a few years ago for the minimum effort!

Hi Krissy! I have one green thumb! LOL I have a bleeding heart plant in the back. It gets wide more than tall and the blossoms are beautiful!It also does best in shade. Coreopsis, black eyed susans and cone flowers all do well in the sun. Another pretty one is the Balloon flower. Also Salvia and Crimson Butterfly. These all do well in the sun!

Good luck with your planting. And for Andy too! Smile

Yes, Sue, I think so too.  Just let me know when you're coming.  If you give me a week or two notice, I can arrange a little time off work to show you around.  And then when the weather's hot, I just might come up to northern NV at some point to check out the high desert.
