Pickles by Brian Crane for June 02, 2012

Just the type of garden for Earl. No work required.

Maybe the government will pay Earl not to raise veges

Yeah. I thought I’d help my wife out by sprinkling a bag of “wildflower” seeds in her garden. Turns out they’re all weeds….4 ft. tall, flowering weeds. Who knew?

A weed is a plant that man hasn’t found a commercial use for yet.

@orinoco womble: Or an esthetic use.

Every year I used to buy vinca, or periwinkles. The original plants eventually die and their seeds come up in all kinds of places.Makes a wild garden.

My gravel yard is doing a very good impression of turning into my own rain forest. If it ever stops raining here, I’ll have it taken care (and contribute more to climate change).

I wonder what Opal thinks of all that.

I have my anti-grden well underway!

Well put, AshburnStadium.

My kind of garden.

What happens when anti-garden meets garden? The neighborhood explodes with a brilliant fight.

I wasn’t actually talking about cannibis OR hemp in my original remark about weeds. The body goes where the mind is, I guess. I was thinking more in terms of those wild plants and flowers that are considered “weeds” by many gardeners.

A weed patch?

Now what TYPE of weed are we talking about here?

LOL. I love this strip.

A weed is something that grows where you don’t want it. George wants that yard. He is in favor of bio-diversity.

Down here we call that: A Natural Florida Landscape. True story. The Yankees don’t like it,though. They prefer lawns that must use up our precious water and invasive species of plants that kill off native vegetation.

A “garden of weedin’”

Give a canary marijuana seeds and he will sing better then he ever did.

It sounds like West Virginia’s State Road Department. They spend taxpayer money to plant patches of so-called wildflowers. If they’re wild, you don’t need to plant them.
