I tend to grow tons and tons of different types of flowers. I try new things, new strains, new varieties. I'm pretty adventurous that way....though I have to admit, I don't pay $6,000. for a new or hot plant!


6,000.....such an interesting number....one of our favorite F&G Buds has 6,000 posties....hopefully not that many ants, not that many bugs, not that many spiders.

6,000. Such a nice number. Such a nice friend. Such a wonderful bud mod!

I'd like to say "CONGRATULATIONS!" and "THANK YOU!" to one of our chief buds......SNOWWARK for taking such good care of us and our gardening needs!!!


She's truly a flowering bud!!! ....tee......hee.....

I only counted 38 types in my yard, by the way.....and I never spent $6,000 for any of them....:D

:wave: Hi, Snowwark! :D Thanks for sharing your gardening wisdom with us! We all appreciate it!:D


On the other topic, I re-inventoried my perennials just the other day to see who made it thru the harsh winter we had. I am left with 78 different types of plants, numbering just over 100 plants all together. Plus hundreds of bulbs, and about 25 pots of annuals.....you know what that all adds up to????

IT TAKES WAY TOO LONG TO FERTILIZE!:rolleyes: :p

I don't have 6,000 different flowers, Although I would love to have that many. I've never spent $6,000 on a plant, I be planted along with them if I did. I know 6000 bugs would drive me buggie.

What a wonderful number 6000 is. When it's coming from our Queen Moderator.

Congratulations Kim on 6,000!

Thats a Good 6000! So is 6,000 Dollars!

Unfortuanately, I have neither. I only have:

6000 weeds the hillside of my neighbors house. They keep trying to creep over onto my hillside, but I keep a bottle of Weedkiller on hand.

6000 black ants all over my back porch and trying to get into my kitchen:eek: I ran out and bought some Ant and Roach Perimeter spray and it seems to be working!

Now, for my Perrenials, I have about 40 different varieties and I'm lucky if I can remember all their names.

Thanks Kim for all the great Posts!

You Buds are the best! We wouldn't even be here, if it wasn't for all of you (and of course, Webmaster Pete! :) ). :)

I'm sure I've spent at least $6000. at the various garden centres over the years...scary thought actually!!! :eek:

6,000 plants, I definitely don't have..lol..:)

WOW, Sorcerormickey!!!!!

:eek:

Thank you, Buds! :o :o :cool: :o :o
