Hello. My Name is Peggy.

I have been working on a blog that incorporates two very important aspects of my life: plants and girls’ weekend. But I’m overdue to post something, and explaining pictures like the following is harder than I had imagined. I decided to take the easy way out. Check back next week for a story that pales in comparison to the insanity that is girls’ weekend.

Hidden Hills Garden

How can I possibly explain this???

 In September I wrote a blog titled ‘The Weekend that Changed my Life.’ At the end I talk about having a very strong feeling that somehow the weekend would change my life, but not knowing how. Well, now I know. It turned me into an addict. I’m addicted to free plants, and like any junkie I’ll do whatever it takes to feed my habit. It started innocently enough. I was looking through the fall catalogs and getting ready to order a ‘Pink Lemonade’ blueberry when I thought, “I wish I was at the Garden Writers’ Association meeting last year. I would have gotten a free one.” Then it hit me. I should call Briggs Plant Propagators, mention I’ve written ‘Hot Plant’ articles for Alabama Gardener Magazine and do a little begging. Apparently I’m good at it because yesterday I received a box with the following plants:Plants at Hidden Hills Garden

Beside the blueberry, which got the whole thing started, I’m most excited about the Japanese forest grass. The literature only describes it as green and white with pink highlights in fall, but I’m seeing some purple highlights. The bunnies promptly ate the last Japanese forest grass I planted, so this one is getting fenced in.

    Wow, Peggy! Didn’t realize when was asking you about the Methvens’ gardens, that you have a fantastic garden of your own! Do you welcome visitors? Am having a meeting of my field trip committee next Tuesday, January 10th, and would love to hear from you so can relay your reply to them.

    Thanks,

      Thanks Allyson. Yes, that sounds like fun. Connie and I live about 10 minutes from each other. You can tour both if you would like. I’ll be in touch.
