Today I did about 1/3 of the rehab in my kitchen garden - weed barrier plus woodchips. That already makes a difference. With so much rain, the...
I mulch right up to the canes. They don't seem to mind it at all. By the way, I didn't water mine at all last summer, even during the 115F week....
I started installing weed barrier in my garden of shame. It will take a while to complete the job. Then comes the more attractive wood chip...
@Logan Your climate sounds like mine. We have more rain this year than in the past several. I think the reason we have more rain, is I finally...
@Sjoerd ask and you shall receive :). I repotted it, gave it some fertilizer, and it's now in the sun all day. The leaves are pale. I hope new...
@Melody Mc. I use tree chips. My raspberries grow fine with those.

I hilled up two more rows of potatoes, this time late ones (Elba) and midseason, German potatoes (Soraya). The plants are green and lush. Not...
I had some as volunteers for a year or to after growing them before. Then that area became raised beds. I'm hoping for annuals that re-seed if...
We used hunt morels where I grew up in southwestern Illinois. I distributed morel spawn here but so far have not seen any. Such delicious fungi!
Beautiful flowers!
Thanks. Me too! The Brugmansia is the variety "Charles Grimaldi". I don't know if that is the same Charles Grimaldi who founded the royal line...
For what it's worth Mike, one of my scans had a blur too. Then they looked and noted that there was a blur on a prior scan that they missed. It...
Such an impressive history. So much courage and so much loss then.
