If only I had your skill with languages, Sjoerd. But I'm thinking about resuming Spanish classes.
I laid black plastic in the area where I will plant squash seedlings. Maybe tomorrow. Also, planted a big clump of dusty miller in the fig row....
Such an interesting plant!
Welcome @Nate77 to Garden Stew!
Thanks Pac for the info. I read your link. We can only do what we can do. I can't make my neighbors cut down their Leyland Cypress and Firs, or...
That's a shame about the sapling. I'm glad to be happy with the trees and shrubs that I have now. Most are tall enough now, and I don't want...
Nope! I did once nearly slide off a cliff while hiking in the "badlands" of Cappadocia in central Turkey. I was in the Army, young, and...

Today was the end of the electrician job. Whew! So much work. I let it be deferred during the pandemic, and wasn't up to it that past two...
Yum! Looking at those photos, Sjoerd, the fragrance and flavor cross the Atlantic and the continents. I can actually taste them! I will show...
It's all very beautiful, Pac. I don't know why my irises do so poorly. They are my favorite flower. It's like they are cursed. They grow well...
Just incredibly beautiful!
What do they smell like? Could they be lemon balm?
Probably Hyacinthoides, otherwise known as Scilla or Bluebell. Hyacinth is also a possibility. Most likely, it was moved there by gnomes as a...
Sjoerd your tomato growing is worthy of a documentary. The plants are so lush and vigorous. The marigolds, too. At the same time, they are...
