    I do knitting and crocheting, in fact my adult ed. Boces that I teach for talked me into teaching a crochet class as well as a quilting class! It was a lot of fun to share my passions!

    Suzi! Have you tried scraping (w/a potato peeler) Irish Spring soap on your plants? I do this about once a month or so and it keeps the deer and rabbits from eating my hosta. I use the bits of soap left over after bathing. Also, treat for slugs or they will make my hosta leaves "lacy".

    Are you saying the irish spring soap keeps the slugs off your hosta, too? If so, I am definitely going to try that!
