Re: Limestone walkway


The rose color sounds good, I like soft yellows.  Our local Botanical
Conservatory volunteers put on a garden walk every year (but they use MGs to
handle questions).  It is usually 7 to 10 gardens in a selected area of the
city/county and costs $6 to $7.  I've been asked a couple of times to
participate, but can't for so many reasons.
