Welcome to the Stew, James, from mid-Norway. :D I'm sure you'll like it here. I've no experience with volcanic clay or sandstone.
You're very welcome to some of our snow. Winter just decided to show herself again, and my pretty, little saxifraga with the yellow blooms has a...
Nice birds! :D I like that blacbird. Ours are just black.
:smt041 Love it!
Good morning, 4 deg C/39 deg F and rain today. Doesn't matter, I'm getting to stand in our new riding house to learn more about horsemanship....
I've got native plants here and there. Birches, fir, rowan, ferns and honeysuckle for instance, but my garden would be pretty drab if I had stuck...
Good thinking! To know when to call it quits is important, both in life and in gardening. I've learned the hard way to choose my battles...
Dramatic photos! I hope all our internet friends are doing alright considering the circumstances. I'll combine my rain-wishes with the rest of the...

Spring day here is April 14th, also known from old as "moving day", when employees could give in their notice and start to work elsewhere. We've...
Congratulations on your vultures, Dooley! :D Best get that spawn into a bucket and store in the garage, Eileen.
:smt005 My tummy hurts, and I'm still laughing. Stamp!
The afore-mentioned Berberis perhaps? :evil: I guess anything bushy and/or unyealding will help, especially if it's got thorns. If you plant...
Happy anniversary, Wannabe! Enjoy yourselves. :stew1:
Your shingles path looks lovely, Toni. Well done so far. :) Maybe the one ladybird thought she had such a nice welcome, she'll fetch the rest...
I once planted a ginger root. It looked a lot like that sprout. I wouldn't dare guess what you've got there, though.
Signs of many a good dinner to come! :) I wish you fair weather all Easter.
