We plant Simpson's Elite, Red Salad Bowl, and Oakleaf. If we want "mesclun" I just mix the seeds together and add a few arugula seeds, and I've...
Tonight it is shrimp in a garlic Alfredo sauce, herb bread, and a broccoli salad, all served with a nice Pinot Grigio. Cayuga, that sounds like...
Oh, happy day! My husband came home from his marathon Monday shopping trip with five pounds of Yukon Gold seed potatoes, and the Red Salad Bowl...
Hummer, we are not cheap, we are frugal! I, too, hate to toss seeds. I like your idea of a "trial garden" for these seeds, and transplanting those...
Zepherine is a gorgeous rose! It also is one of the few roses that will grow in shade. About pruning, do you want to keep it in bounds, or...
I will use seed from the previous year, and have had good results from vegetable, herb, and flower seed that is a year old. When one considers the...
We are so fortunate with our vet! She really cares (medically and emotionally) for animals, and loves to see our cats come in because they purr,...
TGIF, and the wind isn't blowing gale force! I started flats of basil and thyme, and am out to plant more onions later this morning. Our planting...
Cayuga, I searched for "dry stew" and came up with nothing. I hate to bother you, but would you explain what "dry stew" is, and perhaps tell me...
Shhhh, don't tell. A friend that I gets a lot of our garden vegetables can't garden now, but has in the past. I was given about 20 tomato cages he...
We have sunshine and no discernible wind, so I'm a happy person! Our temps are in the high 40's, so I'll go out later and plant some lettuce and...
I've received two catalogs from Seeds 'n' Such which I immediately pitched without even looking at them. Ordered last year, had very poor...
Still wet and misty this morning. I want to play in the dirt, not mud! Last night's weather forecast by a very pretty but vacant lady on TV,...
Thank you all for the kind words and concern. We had no damage, the cats were less than happy but they holed up in their shelter, and the hens...
We had an overnight rain/sleet event, and when we got up (no damage, except to my feelings) we saw a landscape transformed. Here is a photo of one...
Frank, when I saw that the Stew was down, I thought you were doing this intentionally to remind us how much we like, depend on, and enjoy the...
I think fried okra is more a regional dish than an ethnic one. Perhaps you have to be raised eating it to appreciate (?) fried okra.
DogThumbs, if half or a little less of a stem is still attached to the "mother plant" you may be able to reattach the broken part. You can either...
Hummerbum, Westerland roses are available at Heirloom Roses-https://www.heirloomroses.com/catalogsearch/result/?q=roses+climbing-roses+westerland....
As Toni said, the weather here has been in the 70's, and we've been taking advantage of it. Husband tilled the seasonal garden, I planted broccoli...
