I garden in Pennsylvania in Zone 6a in a somewhat contained yard that has everything from full sun to full shade. This blog is an outlet for my garden mania (a condition we call "garden head") and serves to document my successes and failures. I hope to post useful and concise information to help cultivate a garden head epidemic among people who don't have the resources, time, or space to make things all neat and perfect like the magazines purport. I use organic practices and I'm usually a mess and in a hurry. If I had my druthers, I'd be gardening nonstop. Welcome to my mania!
