Thanks for sharing your special plants for special people (2 or 4 legged) with us.<BR/><BR/>Love that little marker for your Sprite astilbe, it's a very special variety you got there. ;-) And how wonderful that the UPS man gave you that daylily from his own garden, how very thoughtful of him.Yolanda Elizabet Heuzenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02506031220151023088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3070488376505303445.post-38626572915284206512008-01-11T20:30:00.000-05:002008-01-11T20:30:00.000-05:00I think we've started something here, Kylee, and i...I think we've started something here, Kylee, and it's nice to see that so many other people are sharing about their special plants for special people (two legged and four legged). Like Willow I sometimes wonder how I'll feel if I ever leave this place, but then I think...those we love are always all around us.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12107236871193698777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3070488376505303445.post-303275509855845392008-01-11T17:14:00.000-05:002008-01-11T17:14:00.000-05:00These last two memory posts are quite special, Kyl...These last two memory posts are quite special, Kylee - thank you! Do people who aren't gardeners understand how we can become so attached to a plant because of its human, feline or canine connections? <BR/><BR/>Like Willow, I had to leave a lot of special plants behind when moving from one climate in IL to a quite different one in TX. But leaving the memory plants was better than never having planted them at all. <BR/><BR/>Annie at the Transplantable RoseAnnie in Austinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14662139490401110432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3070488376505303445.post-68514154650274355212008-01-11T07:55:00.000-05:002008-01-11T07:55:00.000-05:00Oh Kylee, this post is so touching.

I've chosen plants for my garden that will bring back special memories and it's always so nice to see that others do the same.<BR/><BR/>Cindy at Rosehaven CottageCindy Garber Iversonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15543940998038589239noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3070488376505303445.post-26959993590127973702008-01-10T22:37:00.000-05:002008-01-10T22:37:00.000-05:00Oh Willow, I know what you mean.

And it's not just the gardens, but the house itself, too. My dad and husband have done so much work to it that it doesn't have "just" a pergola or french doors or a step-down family room. We've been living our life here and when the day comes that we leave this house, there's a part of us that will remain.Kylee Baumlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04288354709094515651noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3070488376505303445.post-47763376668602573672008-01-10T22:15:00.000-05:002008-01-10T22:15:00.000-05:00My special plants in my Oregon garden made it hard...My special plants in my Oregon garden made it harder for me to leave there. My uncle's rhubarb, Laurel's vine, Jennifer's hydrangea. I wonder if the new owners appreciate my plants. And our Colorful Kitty is buried under the fir tree there. sigh.Willowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02912030095491960175noreply@blogger.com
