under the cover of darkness

Post by R. Rock »

Hello!!! Introductions are always scary :eek: . A little about me :hmm: live in midwest Wi.,45 min. east of twin cities. consider my zone;3 with mulch zone 4. I am blessed with two children; not sure on that one, ages are 3 & 14. I have been involved in the horticulture industry for 23 yrs., currently have a successful landscape design and installation co., along with that a nursery is being established. I have transformed what used to be kept up around here(10 min. of mowing) into 8 acres of lush lawn and gardens and more as time progresses. The gardens emphasize stone work, rare and unique conifers, and of course hosta. The gardens are my release. :D I finally decided to be involved because of the professionalism of Chris and the personalities surrounding this forum. :bd: I will have to practice typing somehow ; my fingers are already wore down like an old hen's beek in the barnyard. Cheers to all :beer:

Welcome to the forum. Looking forward to seeing some pics of your place, sounds amazing. I love the look of old stonework used in a garden setting. All the best.

Thankyou for the welcome!!! I do realize pictures are a real hit. May try to post this afternoon. I am new to all of this technology; just last week I thought this computer screen was part of the digital T.V. signal. :roll:
