Thank you I just know you all will be a great help to me I have had to move in with my sons and have about 3 acreas if $ allow it to plant in if I am able to keep up with the weeds before I became disable I had lots of plants and just love them and am going mostly with Hostas and I want some tall grasses and oh just everything Last summer I only had 4 plants was very depressing but I am getting seeds and things started now and getting very excited

Dear Teri - there are sneaky ways to save oh so much money, but you'll need patience! And a sweet attitude, when the plants don't quite deliver for you!

Can you grow annuals which self seed? Then there are perennials which will bulk out quickly - in three years, you make yourself bother to lift and divide them - hey presto! they cover a much larger area.

And how about friends' gardens? Offer to dig out and move any unwanted shrub etc. (within reason). You'd be surprised how many people get sick of lovely things and dig them out for the rubbish. Let it be known that you run a rest home for unwanted plants! Keep gently reminding your friends!

Can't help with the Sago palm, but best of luck with your new garden! I love grasses, too - now they can be jolly slow to grow big enough!
Good luck and happy gardening
