Since our flowers don't suffice for the little hummingbirds/gluttons, I make a sugar syrup nectar to fill our two feeders. It's an easy recipe--1...
You are most welcome here, cacti and all!

Welcome from central Texas, USA! Gardening is so enjoyable, so rewarding, and often so delicious! We are looking forward to seeing your posts and...
Sjoerd, I wonder why folks at the food bank don't want Swiss Chard? Perhaps a recipe or two included with the Chard might help. I won't be...
