Th...A hearty congratulations on getting good soil! That's quite an accomplishment. Those red roses are spectacular, as is the campanula and geranium combo. <br />I'm still working toward that goal for most of the garden, though some parts are good. I'm afraid the good soil doesn't go very deep, though, but hopefully my growing worm population will start working on that. I should buy a pH device like you have, would be very handy.VWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17539135776275337661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-357865578794109155.post-17100985326096831892010-01-06T21:19:44.230+01:002010-01-06T21:19:44.230+01:00Happy New Year to you, Rob!

I add compost and mulch once a year, otherwise other than getting an occasional haircut, everything is neglected. But you read my blog, so of course you know that :-)<br /><br />Would agree that nepeta and geraniuims (mine are Rozanne) need virtually nothing to be happy. My nepeta still has not died back and the geraniums are busy putting out new leaves even as I write this.susan morrisonhttp://www.garden-chick.typepad.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-357865578794109155.post-10296684499813783452010-01-05T13:58:25.784+01:002010-01-05T13:58:25.784+01:00Hi Rob - our 'weather' has indeed arrived....Hi Rob - our 'weather' has indeed arrived.
