Re: READER PHOTOS! Ellen's garden in North Carolina

Please remove the "fine Gardening" PR at the bottom of the page that protrudes into the written description of the garden of the day. I understand that you want the strip across the bottom of the screen for advertising, but to have the magazine cut into the script also is too, way too much! It is already a pain to have to continue raising and lowering the page to read about the pictures each time and this makes it worse, to the point that at times I just leave the site.

I do enjoy your site. I have found that I find myself gardening more to include my young grand daughters into the love of it. Each has a stone garden cottage by Mary Braswell that we work on each time they visit. Hopefully one day soon I will get my pictures to you.

Re: Book Give-Away: Beautiful No-Mow Yards, by Evelyn J. Hadden

For the past 4 years I have been eliminating my lawn section by section. I am down to a 30sq area and am waiting for an inspiration for that area. Evelyn Hadden may solve that last area! It has been a relief to no longer need a mower and I am constantly receiving compliment on my new garden
There is a place in my library for this inspiring new edition.

Myth:Plant kitchen waste with a new planting to add nutrieunts.
I "planted" my kitchen waste in the woods near my front door anticipating moving cinnamon ferns to the area. After a short period of time I planted my cinamon ferns and watched them wilt and die back from the effect of the decaying matter. More is not always good.

Re: READER PHOTOS! Fairy gardens in the land of...Washington

I, too, have enjoyed creating a moss fairy garden with my granddaughters. Where did you get the windows and door?
