Hi Everybody,
To mistake #1 - I say Balderdash! Avoid impetuousness? I'll try just as
soon as I find a place for these shocking pink plastic Flamingos I bought on
line. (I DO love a bargain!) Thought I might even put a spotlight on them
so they are sure to be noticed. :)
Uhhh, hope this doesn't qualify me for mistake # 12. :( Probably not
though, I'm talking good quality plastic here, not that cheap plaster stuff.

However, I must say that while many of the "syndromes" are valid, others,
particularly the first two, sound a bit high handed, as if to say that if
you garden isn't professionally landscaped, it's a mess.
My garden is a collectors garden, which I rather proudly call "The Garden of
Wretched Excess". I try to place and let plants grow where they are happy
and appropriate and I can care properly for them and, yes, I've made my
share of mistakes.
My garden may never win any landscape awards, but frankly, that's OK by me.
