Re: [ENABLED] Admin New Owner

i am a totally blind gardener who lives in rural south georgia.  my
favorite flowers that i like to work with are day lilies.  isince loosing
all my vision, i continue to dig them myself, seperate, and replant.  i did
not get to do much of that last year as i am also a full time high school
teacher and spent most of my time off or should i say half of it last
summer in michigan getting my first leader dog.  other flowers that i truly
enjoy are verbena, lantana, iris, amaryllis, daffodils, cone flowers shasta
daisies, mums just to name of few of what i have in my yard at present.
also perennial salvia and pinta were added last summer.  i have a few house
plants which are hanging baskets on my front porch in the summer time and
spend the window being moved from one place to another in my home.  i
desperately want a small green house or have a small florida room built
onto my home to accomadate my plants and to have a place to start the
flowers i like to start from seed in the winter so that they will be ready
for my garden in the summer. - window sills are what i use now.  i am
planning a small vegetable garden for this summer.  i hope this has been
enough to introduce me to the list.  i am looking forward to hearing from
others on the list soon.
