The ground is all rock there and I can only dig down about six inches so that presents a problem. I hope your grapes grow. I would love to have some grape vines.<br /><br />Good morning, Sally. Thank you for stopping by and commenting. I like that foggy pic, too.Diana LaMarrehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11324428666401187803noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6735463.post-35703224396987162912010-01-19T06:22:49.647-05:002010-01-19T06:22:49.647-05:00The arbors are so beautiful, the one with the fog ...The arbors are so beautiful, the one with the fog is breath taking.SallyChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15764942690603947985noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6735463.post-24248050687137361662010-01-19T05:54:53.682-05:002010-01-19T05:54:53.682-05:00such inspirational pics - thank you!

We planted grapes at the base of our gigantic arbor last year - if they don't "take" this season, out they come for something more agreeable!Jodyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18385925436122590384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6735463.post-70123203061826052282010-01-19T05:30:12.451-05:002010-01-19T05:30:12.451-05:00Thanks, Deb.
Betty,

I only do it once or twice for the season--when they look really bad. If I am really lucky my husband will be outside and I can get him to bring it down!Diana LaMarrehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11324428666401187803noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6735463.post-50589655980000010112010-01-19T00:00:17.643-05:002010-01-19T00:00:17.643-05:00I say " Go for it " but how do you deadh...I say " Go for it " but how do you deadhead those flowers on the very top?Suzyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07650696130681003892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6735463.post-87407575326054652622010-01-18T19:54:15.712-05:002010-01-18T19:54:15.712-05:00Oh Zoey..I can't believe you are trying to mak...Oh Zoey..I can't believe you are trying to make these decisions already..grin.
