Plants add value
Did you know that landscaping your home can add resale value of roughly 7 percent? According to information provided by the American Nursery and Landscape Association, "homes with "excellent" landscaping can expect a sale price about 6 to 7 percent higher than equivalent houses with "good" landscaping, while improving landscaping from "average" to "good" can result in a 4 to 5 percent increase."
Landscaping can also reduce air conditioning costs and trees can help buffer unwanted noises. More great reasons to get outside and work in your garden. Happy Gardening.

Update on the ducks
We had six babies, we think. Right after they hatched, Mama Duck took them into the water with Dad Duck keeping a very watchful eye. We haven't seen them since so we suspect they went to an area where they could hide to raise their brood. As soon as we see them swimming around again, we'll let you know. Happy Gardening.
