  2. What a wonderful giveaway!! Yes something is eating my tomato plants in the garden. We ended up buying and were gifted a few more plants that we put into big planters and have them on our deck instead of near the garden. We also found out our nut tree's nuts, which is dropping nuts too early, has a worm that is causing them to fall off.

  3. We have bugs and weeds and I'd love to find environmentally-friendly ways to rid our yard of both -- now, if I could just get our 100-pound black lab to stop killing the bushes by peeing on them, I'd be set! :)

  7. Yes, I have bugs and the never ending weeds. Slugs on the hostas and something was eating the azaleas (sp?), but they are gone now. Been trying vinegar on the weeds, but got to say not working with success. I am going to google another green way of getting ahead of the weeds. Someone told me to try ouring boiling water over them. To me, that seems like a lot of extra work. Thanks for the give a way.

  47. I just love your blog Cindy. I am always checking it to see if you added something new. I would love to win this to surprise my husband (the gardener). We have 24 antique cast iron garden urns in our yard filled with flowers. Hubby just had to completely redo the rose garden area due to weeds. We have to start over every year because we live in the midwest and never know what we are going to lose year to year. Plus, my husband loves annuals. We could do wonders with this giveaway!

  60. I surely need a safe way to get rid of whatever is eating away at my tomato plants...we were gone 3 days and when we returned my largest plant was without 2/3's of its leaves and blossoms. I'm sad! This plant was even in a topsy-turvy planter.

    ReplyDelete
  61. I currently am blessed to not have any bad bugs causing any problems on my plants...I am struggling having to water things. our heat has been brutal...it should be in the 80's next week, so there's a little help in sight.

    fun...and her foxgloves are gorgeous.

  62. I'm gradually getting ahead of the aphids on my roses, but those darn pillbugs that keep eating my seedlings are winning that battle (mostly because I haven't found something Green to use on them).

  64. Those flowers are beautiful...exactly the color I've been searching for today. I want to say a very deeply heart-felt "Thank You" for the beautiful inspiration your work/blog/love has been for me. I've been a lurker for a few weeks now, reading the archives & keeping up with your day-to-day also. I've decided to do some decorating thanks to you, and today I went thrifting. I found my perfect teapot shelf! and two very expensive looking/feeling lampshades...as well as a couple other beautiful bits. I'm going to try painting that ugly little gem of a vintage shelf because you have given me the confidence to just go for it. If I ruin it I'm out $13...but no hard feelings if worse comes to worst! I am however optimistic & will keep you in mind as I progress...for moral support ;-)
    Thank you for sharing your talent & success with the world; you -and the beautiful home you've created - are very inspiring.
    Don't have a Blog, so please enter me in your give away as Amaragrace@hotmail.com.
    Many Blessings

  65. Bugs? More like SLUGS!!! They love to munch on my hydrangeas, my hollyhock, my dahlias, etc, etc, etc!! :)

    Something else is also eating my hydrangea but I don't know what it is.

    ReplyDelete
  66. Yes I do have bugs and they are really bugging me! I have some little white ones that have formed by the millions on one of my roses and some snails that won't go away no matter how nicely I ask them to. Plus there is something that has been eating one of my hydrangeas in the back yard. So, I could really really use this and would be ever so thrilled to win.

    Hugs,
    Joanne

  69. What a cool treat that was to receive those products, Cindy!! Yes, I've had bugs so bad that the plants I had in my home left sticky stuff all over the leaves that then dripped onto my carpet. That was last year, and the plants are gone, but the sticky stuff is still there. :-( So gross!!

    I had some other bugs kill three other plants on my patio, too, but I don't know what kind they are.

    Great giveaway!

    Thanks so much!!

  71. If you have a garden, you have bugs...which is to say, yes I have bugs. Aphids on roses, hornworms on tomatoes, squash beetles on my zucchini. Still, there will be plenty for us!

  72. Oh this is awesome. I'm trying to also use greener products in my home.

  74. Cindy, Love your blog/website. I visit it every day. Please enter me in the drawing for the gardening stuff, I am having a problem with bugs on my roses. I don't have a blog yet but my e-mail address is outback6000@windstream.net. I tried the recipe for the blueberry/peach cobbler because blueberries and peaches have been really cheap lately. Absolutely scrumptious!.

    ReplyDelete
  77. I am always so envious of your beautiful flowers! I have a hard time, getting my flowers to bloom, I don't think that it is really anything that I am doing, I just think it is the HOT-HOT-HOT weather that we have here in Texas!! I live along the gulf coast, usually we have plenty of rain, but have not had our usual amount of rainfall for the last 2 years---not good for the plants.

    ReplyDelete
  78. Thanks for offering the giveaway! Bugs - heck yes...and would love a 'green' way of getting rid of them!

  79. Great giveaway, thank you.
    Enter me, sometimes we have bugs, this year the garden getting a little neglected to even see if we have bugs. But next year we have a big garden redo planned so better to cut them off at knees now.
    Love that these are evironmentally friendly, that is always good!

  85. My husband is pretty bug obessed and uses a "garden dust" to keep the bugs at bay. I would love to start using more organic products though. Not sure if anyone has advice on getting rid of Locust Killer Wasps, though? We have two that come back every summer and they just FREAK me out! {**Sighing realizing we should have thought better about buying a home on "Locust Aveune"**}
