You are correct .. it was a gift from Japan. It averages about 3 feet of growth daily. My neighbor has some that he keeps groomed.. it covers his chain link fence and makes for perfect privacy. I'll share pictures of that next week.. since Kudzu peeked everyone's interest.<br />Thanks for taking the time to visit and comment today.. Have a Great Weekend!<br />Hugs,<br />Debbie<br /><br />ohhh .. I love your blog design!

Your shrubs and borders are well placed, lots to enjoy there!<br /><br />Now, about your window with those roses...you need to finish painting it with all the love you have inside of you! Roses are always teasing their artists, always...always saying they aren't pretty or done well. But, in truth, they are very nice.<br /><br />I went through the same thing with my roses, God gave them to me at the end of my paint brush in answer to prayer then showed me a piece I bought that I thought was Fabulous before I started painting.<br /><br />Those fabulous roses on that piece I bought were beautiful before I knew what roses were supposed to look like, and yet I fell in love with the roses, knowing just what they were.<br /><br />Finish painting that window! It is lovely and your shed area is so inviting! <br /><br />You're motivating me to finish my porch project, hope I have motivated you to take your God given talent and finish that window.<br /><br />Hugs in Him,<br />MelissaCottageBlisshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10175120961469418516noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9081468613531112998.post-87694581311886749832009-05-28T11:40:56.528-07:002009-05-28T11:40:56.528-07:00Pretty yard!

I had one...Mona you have a wonderful potting bench! I had one at our old house and really loved it. I'm afraid of having too much stuff "standing around" in this yard. We have big and little slithery things that scare the bejeepers out of me and I do not want to give them a nice place to curl up under! (Man, I'm a chicken.)<br /><br />You need to try "Halts". Your crabgrass will be gone in a week or so. Honest! No blade by blade pulling necessary! I'm trying to think if it's made by Ortho . . . it may be Scotts. Just go to Lowes or Home Depot and they'll have it.<br />Hope it works. Love the flowers! I need to get some color going too!<br />Have a great day!Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09434884248842943912noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9081468613531112998.post-61919923257932710382009-05-28T07:55:53.685-07:002009-05-28T07:55:53.685-07:00Hi Mona!

We have a kind of Blue bell here that is so invasive that it kills everything else after a while. But it´s so beautiful when it flowers so many that doesn´t know it lets it flower and spread it self until it´s to late.<br /><br />I like that tin plate of Yours!<br />Christer.The cottage by the Cranelakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07521318192039394408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9081468613531112998.post-66918179802616935492009-05-28T07:45:12.006-07:002009-05-28T07:45:12.006-07:00Hi Mona, I love your potting bench and I think you...Hi Mona, I love your potting bench and I think your roses are great.
