This month I discovered something wonderful. Impatiens, my favorite flower in La Jolla, grows in my garden in the mountains-- with the bad soil and dry conditions! True, they do not get as big or lush as in La Jolla but they are color and the best part? Neither the deer or the squirrels eat them!! And don't let anyone tell you that squirrels don't eat the plants. I have watched them, nibble them, just like a rabbit and so I am sure sometimes I have maligned the deer when it has been the squirrels. Anyway next year impations will be a big part of my gardening. Yea...
