Strange coincidence that we find many heart shaped things here at
Wuv'n Acres!
A view of the garden from the side of the house, out the garden gate, into the garden
and a few other pictures, which are now a few years old.
I hope to update these images this season.
uvn Acres began
when we moved from a two-story house in the city to a fixxer-upper in the
country.
Barren, empty, hopeless it seemed at times. It's funny to review the photos
of how it all looked in the beginning.
Little by little, plants were added, things were changed, and many a rock
was hauled. The result became an abundance of greenery and quite a rewarding
site in full bloom. We've created this site to share this bounty with the
rest of the gardening world!
We're proud to be 'backyard' gardeners! Many big nurseries hire help at
low wages. They often muse and laugh at little gardens such as ours, calling
us 'backyard gardeners'. We find this to be quite a compliment, thank
you!
We do it all by ourselves. We're not fancy, we're not big time, but we're
having a ball doing it!

DAYLILIES
Seems funny, when someone mentions 'daylily' most folks think of yellow and
orange flowers in the ditches.
Oh, but not so, they are much more beautiful than you ever imagined!
Gaze at a few of these beauties and you'll be hooked!
An interesting tidbit, 'daylily' is not spelled incorrectly. There are but
two L's in the word. A daylily is not an Easter lilly, nor an Asiatic,
Tiger, Oriental or otherwise. Botanically speaking, the Hemerocallis.
We also carry many seeds for some wonderful crosses of registered cultivars!
HOLLYHOCKS Move your mouse over image to read
text, click pic for larger image.
The beginning of The Ring in
2003
Just a few of our featured blooms!
Though Hollyhocks have been a long standing passion of mine, they didn't
always have a special place to call home. The Ring began in the
summer of 2003. I cheated just a tad by transplanting plants from other
locations in our gardens, thus getting a good jump start on the ring's
fullness. After the hocks have died back for the season, the ring doubles as
a ring for our Castor Bean plants!
If you don't know what a gourd is, or for that matter, what you can do with
one, you will be amazed! For those unfamiliar, hardshelled gourds begin with
but a seed, grow lush beautiful vines covered with white crepe-paper-like
blossoms and produce unique fruits in a variety of shapes. But even better,
once the annual vines die, cut the fruit from the vine and allow them to
cure and mold. No need to worry, this is nature's way of drying them. out.
Once you scrub the mold off, the result is almost plywood hard and
beautiful. Now you can cut, paint, woodburn, and do so much more to them.

own seeds!

greens, mints, pinks and a truly divine red variety to ooh and ahh over. A
good helping of fertilizer and some good summer sun is all you'll need for
this wonderful Ricinus communis, a tropical wonder! Come see photos and find
more information about these exotic plants, click here to order your
seeds any time of the year, though the early birds always get the good ones
first!
LUFFA SPONGE GOURDS
Though not actually a gourd, often referred to as a third family member.
Betcha didn't know these scrubby things were grown in the garden! Many folks
think Luffa are intended for the shower, but if you've ever used an overly
rough luffa, you most likely didn't care for the sloughing of your skin. Our
luffa are grown over a long season in full sun with plenty of Oklahoma
sunshine, producing a large sponge without the roughness of a chemically
altered bath scrubber.
A tutorial on making luffa soap is provided, you'll want to visit this page
just for the fun of it. You may also wish to visit here to see how we grow
luffa, and even better, you can order seeds to grow your own
luffa!
Be sure to note you'll need patience and a long growing season for
them to reach maturity!
VEGGIES AND OTHER EDIBLES
Long gone is the little girl who wouldn't eat her veggies, I love growing them as well as eating them!
Oddball vines with edible leaves - Red Climbing Spinach! A football shaped fruit with insides that take the place of spaghetti noodles - Spaghetti Squash! Oh, it's so much fun growing things you can eat! We have a good stock of various Okra, tomatoes, peppers, onions, beans, tomatillos, squash and so much more. Come see which fun Veggies and Edibles are waiting for you!
MORNING GLORIES
Here at Wuv'n Acres, we grow quite a few morning glories every year. While
we have tried and even provided many varieties of this easy-to-grow bloom,
we found that many of the Morning Glory types just did not compare to the
flashy newfangled blooms on the market today. We're happy to have a brief
list of the best, in our opinion. Click here to see our Morning
Glory page
