Raising Boys: Notes from an exhausted mother

About me

Location	North Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada
Introduction	Hi everyone! My name is Alex and I am an avid gardener. Amateur gardener but enthusiastic. I am also somewhat laid back and not insistent on perfection. One of the great things about gardening is that you can always change your mind. Everything can be moved and if you end up hating it...get rid of it. My garden is huge with all exposures. It is quite a challenge. I have sun and shade both total and partial. I rarely buy annuals and do try to buy evergreens. I am not a trained gardener, it is my hobby and love. I learn by trying things out and am mostly successful. Every year I seem to have a new fancy or fixation. This year, I want to track my garden growth. I will post pictures and comments. All photos are taken by me of my own garden unless otherwise mentioned. Please give me your feedback, guidance and ideas.
