Thanks Candy!
Thank-you for all your useful information. I work in a retail garden center near Philadelphia, not far from Longwood Gardens. We periodically have workshops in the store, it’s nice to get your tips. I also live in a condominium community, & have really limited space.
Carolyn–I’m so honored you read my blog and find it useful! My brother lives in the Queen Village neighborhood of Philadelphia. I love your state!
