About Me

Hi & thanx for checking out my page. I'm the ultimate garden hoe-in the true sense of the word. If you have soil, I want to be in it :-) I'm also a very, very big fan of music. Very big fan. Metal, Gothic, Industrial, Hardcore, some Hip Hop (Kottonmouth Kings & the Subnoize Family from So. Cali.) are a few of my favorite things.I'm a gardener. I am not a photographer. I'm just a gardening freak armed with a digital camera & I'm not afraid to use it! I deeply thank every single friend who compliments my pictures & I love them for their comments. YOU RULE!These pics are (for the most part) of my garden at my friend Doug's house in Morris County NJ. He & I started taking over his 3/4 acre piece of property almost 8 years ago. Our friend Tom has joined us the last 4 years & 8 years later we are still going strong. We add & try new plants every year which we start mostly from our seeds saved from the previous year. I either buy new seeds from the bazillion seed & flower catalogs I get or I go online. Doug's now fenced in his entire piece of property which is 8 feet high (it may look bad but I don't care. Too much time & money are invested to let the animals have a nightly buffet on me). Gardening is the most fun a girl can have in the dirt if you ask me. I now work for a wholesale florist & supply company. I was working for a fresh cut flower importer & distributor but the new owner ran it into the ground & closed it down. This is/was the 2nd time working for the same company; almost 7 years in total so far. I have also worked for a Dutch couple for 3 years who own a flower bulb importer/dist. company & that was really cool. I learned SO much about all the different types & kinds of bulbs/flowers & planting them, etc. My parents had way cool Japanese gardens when I was little & would always drag us to the garden center & then make us help plant & weed. Hated it then but now I'm so happy they did that. Gardening is my ultimate addiction & probably more expensive then heroin. HA!! That was some garden humor for ya!!!!Hope you enjoy the pics. Feel free to comment and if you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask. I don't bite. Well........;-)Peace out, Andrea/Annastasia666I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4
