Emne: Re: Re:mint
ScarletRose: mint is great..but beware.it grows by extending underground rhizomes..it is very invasive...and hard to fence in or even get rid of.plant it in pots or surropund it with a big circular piece of metal planted in the ground.

Foxy Lady: ..your post reminded me of a friends cottage I used to go to.it was secluded,way out in the bush on a small lake.
I made friends with a family of chipmunks.they lost their fear of people,we were so nice to them..they used to come visting at the cottage porch & windows for peanuts.
