My gf spends well over $1500/year on our beds. New color, mulch, garden soil, fertilizer, pesticides. It's her passion. Then again, we bought two palm trees that went in the beds last year, that was about $3500. Now that you brought it up, I'd rather not think about it....

It seems like I looked into F1tv last year, and it looked like it would be difficult to watch on my tv. Is that not true then or now? I don't have an elaborate computer setup, and my eyes are too old to be watching anything of value on my phone....
