I have also found it a good way to get out and talk to the neighbors. I bought the majority of my plants, birdbaths, garden statuary and garden decor on sale, watching all of the sale circulars in the newpapers, and making the rounds. Friends and neighbors are a good source of plants, too, as someone always seems to have an overgrowth of something. I looked at the photos of your crafts and must compliment you on your skills. Happy Gardening P.S. Clematis need a lot of sun.
