Gingko cultivar: Hm. That *is* a tree I could fit in my yard. I know just where I'd put it, too. Are they dreadfully expensive?
I am still and always fighting that horrible vine that comes over from the neighbor, plus that jointed low creeping grass thing--I forget what kind it is; we didn't have it back home. And the orchard grass, of course, but that tends to be a lot easier to get rid of.
I think that I'm going to put landscaping fabric down on the beds at sidewalk level, once I get the roses in. I am very enamored of landscaping fabric. The package always recommends the big chippy mulch like pine bark, though. I mean, okay, it is pretty, but I garden barefoot, for goddess' sake. Have you ever walked barefoot on that pine bark mulch? It's terrible. Cypress is much better.
I can't wait till the forsythia blooms so I can prune my roses. I adore pruning, for some reason. :)
Well, I need to get to school so I can do some research to prepare for my smackdown fest tomorrow at the event.
