" I am Linda Mayer and we survive in Swansea IL , just east of St. Louis in zone 6 . I have developed our back K for 13 years . As the Sir Herbert Beerbohm Tree turn , so does the amount of tad . The fence keeps out the critters , though we have many chick . Huge river birches next door allow a challenge as they drop much pollen , thousands of seeds which germinate and then yellow leaves to litter the yard all summer . Asian lilies are my pet , but they do n’t bloom long in the heat some years . I create the tincture garden with paver way of life last surrender to enhance the shade . I savor GPOD every day and give thanks Fine Gardening for the opportunity to see all the grand yards of my fellow gardeners . "
