The previous owner of our home had planted goodies everywhere(literally!). The first year I let everything grow so I could locate everything and make a new plan for the yard. Occasionally I still find surprises! <br /><br />The Red Spider Lily is interesting- so tall and stately, with little foliage. I could see someone pulling it up before it flowers...<br /><br />DanitaThumperddhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16234876734924724375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5779500482806557328.post-67621085588353825452009-05-13T18:57:00.000-04:002009-05-13T18:57:00.000-04:00Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

That's when they most like to play. *Bloooowwww*<br /><br />I had 5 weeds growing in the middle of my back yard 2 years ago. I decided to let them grow. To my suprise they are a very beautiful Red Spider Lily. Google it. Thanks for the tribute to weeds and your patience in my seeing the dedication.<br /><br />elpyd - find a weed in your back yard with pointy elf-like ears and that's an elpyd.Thomashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13696662845041142754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5779500482806557328.post-71521219485449586912009-05-07T00:04:00.000-04:002009-05-07T00:04:00.000-04:00That's funny Splendid!

Well, he's trying to help...<br /><br />You need to try the dandelion greens - they're WONDERFUL! A little peppery, crisp, & fresh. I tried them at an upscale event a few years ago. <br /><br />I live in an area that was settled in the 1600's by Europeans. The story goes that they brought the dandelions over here and planted them in their gardens for salad. If they can do it, why can't we???<br /><br />DanitaThumperddhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16234876734924724375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5779500482806557328.post-28976635950192046712009-05-07T00:01:00.000-04:002009-05-07T00:01:00.000-04:00Thanks for the comments and compliments you left o...Thanks for the comments and compliments you left on my blog! You are probably right about azaela or rododendron. I don't live in NC; my daughter does--in Asheville. So I am very fond of visiting.Splendid Little Starshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10732090154244573323noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5779500482806557328.post-32147353297400068002009-05-06T12:03:00.000-04:002009-05-06T12:03:00.000-04:00The definition of a weed is just anything that you...The definition of a weed is just anything that you don't want. Sometimes plants appear in my garden serendipitiously.--some I like, some I don't. My husband, a weed-a-phobic, is forever asking me, "Is that a weed?" If I like it, or just want to see what happens as it grow up, the answer is "NO!"<br />BTW, I saw dandeline greens sold by the bunch at the local grocers!Splendid Little Starshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10732090154244573323noreply@blogger.com
