I have seen quite a few signs in people's driveways saying "this is not a turnaround" and the like when I drive through. I've probably driven right by your house!<br /><br />Your annuals are lovely by the way. Impatiens are always a sure winner in my shady little plot, and now I seem to have a new favorite: begonias. I've never been much of a fan before, but they're growing on me.Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15791185232391134319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3702367777217796558.post-41479996330983137282009-06-16T11:27:39.730-04:002009-06-16T11:27:39.730-04:00Hey I would not know what to do without some annua...Hey I would not know what to do without some annuals.

They do add such color to the yard.I guess you could call a tourist an annual.

I love the constant colors that annuals provide in the yard. I put mine mostly in hanging baskets and pots though rather than planting them in my garden. I don't like to disturb the soil so often.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09582157624382487302noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3702367777217796558.post-88241073570948385262009-06-15T15:22:37.857-04:002009-06-15T15:22:37.857-04:00I use mostly annuals so that I can change up the g...I use mostly annuals so that I can change up the garden if I want to without transplant issues!Tootsiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02313167135644565141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3702367777217796558.post-37162870635526838882009-06-15T14:58:18.765-04:002009-06-15T14:58:18.765-04:00Pluck not the wayside flowers, People!

Funny you should bring up the vacationers topic today, because we had originally scheduled a week in your area for next week, but had to change to something closer to home because of my dad's health. {sigh}<br /><br />As for the annuals, they give you really great pops of color when some of the perenniels aren't blooming. I have geraniums, nocotiana, zinnias, dahlias, caladiums, bacopa, lantana, etc. for those colorful additions.<br /><br />Thanks for sharing yours!
