To plant or not to plant

I bemoaned my lack of a green thumb or just plain garden exasperation and your response to my dilemma was abundant. I want to thank all of you for your emails, suggestions and invitations. As a matter of fact...As I was writing this E-mail, my friend Brady brought me a book about Tennessee plants. How exciting. Thank you Brady. I also must mention, I've been obsessed recently with concrete forms. I won (yes Mike...won) a concrete flamingo form on Ebay. I poured my first flamingo yesterday. It's supposed to cure 2 days. I'll unmold it tomorrow and let you know how it turns out. I'm planning on making a whole flock!
