For some reason our Mars grapevine has grown like crazy this spring. It has set on grapes all along its length, and I'm afraid it will be stressed...
Margie, now is the prime time for you to plant or transplant a rose, but the important word is "now". If it needs pruning, do it before moving....
We have two sets of hens. The older ones (6 years old) won't touch carrots in any form. The younger ones (3 years old) eat cooked carrots. Not one...
Pieces of banana? Those pups are, shall we say, different in their tastes. You are well trained, almost as well trained as we are!
Netty, it has a light fragrance, not a walk by and smell the roses fragrance, but a stick your nose up close and sniff fragrance. We have two...
Eileen, the rose's name is "Bengal Tiger", and a portion of each purchase of the rose goes to saving Bengal tigers. How great is that--getting a...
William Blake seems to have written a poem about this rose, the Bengal Tiger. It changes colors as it ages, blooms prolifically, and is easy-care....

Papaw, welcome from a fellow Texas gardener! You have a lovely site and with a bit of patience and work, it will be even better. We have chickens,...

Glad to see you posting again! Spring hits all gardeners hard, but especially those of us who take a tumble. Glad the fall in the spring (yes, a...
EJ, what a shame, and I do hope you can recover quickly from that really nasty rash!
That is a great photo (as usual) of the ospreys! For some strange reason, we don't usually have ospreys here in central Texas (;);)). We did have...
Good windy morning! Netty, how was the awards ceremony yesterday? I do hope all your accomplishments were recognized and applauded. We got the...
Dooley, I'm glad you are in a warming trend (although you didn't have much lower to go!). When we lived in upstate NY, the dump trucks of snow...
Oh my stars, that is truly lovely! The viewer can almost smell and touch the flowers and foliage. Your talent for painting really shows through.:like:
I managed to do some cleaning out and weeding in one of the front flower beds. I would have done more without the wind coming up, and Cali the cat...
