When visiting my uncle in ohio I love to help him mow his lawn with those get on and drive lawn mowers. What seems to be a lot of work for him to mow the 5 acres of land on his property. Is just a lot of fun for me riding around cutting the grass and enjoying the landscape around me. Not all of us have 5 acres of land to mow. What if you have a small or medium size front or backyard. What size lawn mower should you use for that ?

One of my favorite things to add to a landscape or garden are Vines. Vines can add so much depth and color to your front or backyard. Not to mention the pleasant fragrances that some vines produce that make your garden so nice to be in. I just added three different types of vines to my back yard area. My first addition is a summer snowfall trumpet vine that bloom all summer and has beautiful orange and yellow mixed blooms. My second addition is a yellow trumpet vine (campsis radicans 'flava') Which are pure yellow with a strong fragrance to spread around the yard and my third which is my favorite is a halls honeysuckle (lonicera japonica halliana). This vine has pure white flowers that are very fragrant and also is a very fast growing vine. These vines are great for decorating arbors and fences. Which is just what I am going to do
