I can't wait to get home and plant herbs and tomatoes.

I've spent a lot of time in plant nurseries, paying attention to plant names.<br /><br />Mountainwoman - I've neglected the poor garden woefully -- time to get busy!<br /><br />Whether a veggie garden is time/cost effective or not is a good question, Willow. But when the first ripe tomato appears -- ah! then I know why I bother.<br /><br />Thanks, Carol and thanks, Vicki A.!Vicki Lanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08114677510459055768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-764237570467034909.post-6414289579933622432010-04-21T11:18:27.589-04:002010-04-21T11:18:27.589-04:00Lovely thought Vicki and such beautiful butterflie...Lovely thought Vicki and such beautiful butterflies...xvvicki archerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07847183975086900816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-764237570467034909.post-66768045768867092312010-04-21T10:31:09.221-04:002010-04-21T10:31:09.221-04:00Great pics Vicki!

I may have to look into that.<br /><br />Thanks, Martin! So many shades of green on the mountain at this time of year!<br /><br />Thanks, Tatty! There are lots of plans for and info about chicken tractors on the Internet if your boy friend is interested. I did a blog post last year (or the year before) with some links, I believe.<br /><br />You have a point there, Merisi!<br /><br />Our lilac never covers itself with bloom the way I'd like, Pat. One probably gets too much shade and the other suffer from too much pruning -- I think they bloom on second-year growth and I've not left it alone as much as I should.<br /><br />Thanks, Brian -- and I'm enjoying your poetry!Vicki Lanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08114677510459055768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-764237570467034909.post-8986942454241971622010-04-21T06:01:35.287-04:002010-04-21T06:01:35.287-04:00love the blue/black butterfly on the pruple flower...love the blue/black butterfly on the pruple flowers...great shots!Brian Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00722940075884718007noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-764237570467034909.post-54256271063434510572010-04-21T05:52:29.982-04:002010-04-21T05:52:29.982-04:00It has been wonderful working outside and getting ...It has been wonderful working outside and getting parts of the garden ready while taking in all the spring beauty, and smells ... aaaah the lilac is enough to make a person drunk this year!Pat in east TNhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11654095647835294718noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-764237570467034909.post-67008839485971464572010-04-21T05:01:54.838-04:002010-04-21T05:01:54.838-04:00Chicken tractor!!!!

Otherwise, how would they manage to kneel before those gorgeous blossoms, begging to be let in and have a glass of nectar?
