Had them at one house growing up. I plan to plant more. They seem very tolerant to the rough weather we have here. I will check out the old world rose. I'd like something that would climb the front fence without much care. Thanks for commenting!!Brenda Whitesidehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04162555468154752820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3787196793070180268.post-13854747977026506432012-06-10T04:18:42.276-07:002012-06-10T04:18:42.276-07:00Brenda - definitely snapdragons.
And your "s...Brenda - definitely snapdragons.<br /><br />And your "some kind of desert plant I think" is what we call "red hot poker" in Australia and it's permitted in the garden. Grows from bulbs. Yours looks healthier than mine.<br /><br />The best thing about gardens is the unknown pop-ups!<br /><br />Suggestion to ignore or otherwise - ideal hedge is an old world rose variety called "Rosa Chinensis Mutabilis". Don't be tempted to put them in the regular garden if you get any. After a couple of years they take over. And the flowers are so pretty too, a single-petal rose that starts deep pink, fades to a lighter pink and then to cream. But having pruned ours down to the ground for the last few years only to have them reach for the sky again in spring (September here), I pass on the friendly warning - don't put them anyplace where you'll have to care for them!<br /><br />Happy farming. We live in a small town in a rural area, so know a bit about it.Monya Claytonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10457892085239476067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3787196793070180268.post-24348664247383452312012-05-31T06:42:21.924-07:002012-05-31T06:42:21.924-07:00That little guy seems to be one of a kind. It'...That little guy seems to be one of a kind. It's out in the orchard. I would gladly leave them if more pop up. There's no ugly leave or stem like most weeds. In the yard I only get ugly sticker patches, dandelions and this other spindly thing. Actually, there is one more in the yard that took off so fast we didn't realize it wasn't grass coming up until too late. It looks like soft clover until it get bigger. It may have to stay until next year. We need the ground cover now!Brenda Whitesidehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04162555468154752820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3787196793070180268.post-39815255398070465102012-05-31T05:23:56.885-07:002012-05-31T05:23:56.885-07:00The flowers are beautiful and so is the weed.

Or do you get to leave it here and there to enjoy?<br /><br />Have a great time at the conference!Jody Vitekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06092200862551317755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3787196793070180268.post-42004880706674394832012-05-30T21:21:37.837-07:002012-05-30T21:21:37.837-07:00Hey, Nancy.
