Coming into an office where everyone has a permanent green thumb can be intimidating for some, but I've never been afraid of a challenge. When I started working here over a year ago I had no idea how to garden and even if it was something I would be good at. Now, after a hot & rainy summer, I'm proud to show off my green thumb.

Re: Mystery plant

Someone on twitter thinks it, "looks like a member of the clover family, a variety of lespedeza possibly."

Re: READER PHOTOS! Stefani's garden in California

Forloveofflowers - Do you have our Jan/Feb 2012 (#143) issue handy? We actually have an article on plants for shade in there! While some of those do best in sun, you can get away with growing them in the shade. Why not give it a try?

Re: Are you pumped?

Grandma,

You have to be a member of facebook to answer the question. It is posted on our facebook wall. Then you go to RainPerfect Pump's facebook wall and answer the question there. 'Are you pumped?' is just the title of the blog post. Is that a bit more clear?

Re: Are you pumped?

Mary,

Here is the link to the blog post of the second week rules:

http://www.finegardening.com/item/22314/are-you-pumped-for-your-second-chance-to-win-a-rainperfect-pump

The contest is running for four separate weeks, so you still have three more chances to win!

Garden,

I understand your frustration, but the partnership with RainPerfect was to help them advertise their facebook page. Therefore, it needed to be a facebook contest.
