Lawn and Garden Ideas

As the weather warms up, it's useful to know about products or ideas that make outdoor living easier, more convenient or more pleasant.  Here are a few that might interest you:

1)  Pre-seeded "garden mats" are a convenient way to plant a small garden.  Just lay them in prepared soil, add water and watch them grow!
2)  A stationary "garden camera" can be positioned next to your favourite blooming plants to record growth patterns at predetermined times.
3)  A cordless "mosquito mister" can keep bugs away for hours from areas of 2,000 to 4,000 square feet, depending on conditions and formula application.  The manufacturer claims it has a "natural" formula that is safe for kids, pets and food.
