Today it cooled enough to weed the upper vegetable garden. It was mostly chickweed that had to be removed. The smoke chased me in, but it felt...
I didn't know that. :-) My iris' showed themselves this last week. The garden is changing without the large birch trees. The Iris flowers are...
Beautiful harvest Sjoerd! PAC is right - your harvest is especially beautiful in light of all of your obstacles.
You could be right Sjoerd. I have some older photos of ones on my planters I will try to find. Their wings are open. I think this one is a...
They don't spread like thistle at all. :-) At least not where I live. I've had my sea holly for 20 years and I've had about 7 volunteers?? The...
My campanula opened today. :-) [ATTACH] And an unexpected white coloured Bread seed Poppy full of bees. :-) [ATTACH] [ATTACH] My first...
Wonderful harvest Sjoerd! I'm using netting/blankets/mosquito netting also on my berry plants, as well as my brassica. You taught me about that....
We have large polyphemus moths, which I grew up calling Monarch Moths. We rarely see them, usually only after the bug zapper has been on...

@Daniel W - I'm truly happy there was some good news. That is a gift. I do worry. A hearing deficit would be very difficult to overcome. I...

Really lovely!
Since I started on this forum I've been asking a lot of Poppy questions. Thanks to advice to start them early indoors and very carefully...
Beautiful Pac. :flower::heart::flower::flower:
It is not on your list Daniel, but Sea Holly is one my favourite drought tolerant and "deer don't want to eat them" perennials. Although it is...
I'm afraid that I don't know the name Pac. Many of my perennials were given and shared from family when I moved here, and as gardens grew. I...
Tomorrow is a town day for me. Hubby will stay home with Angus and keep things cool. It's a dance of opening and closing windows, and hanging...
I'm sorry to hear about the cosmos. :-( My very dear friend (pun intended ) that taught me to garden and used to run a market garden at the...
I do the same at our creek :-) Dip my hat quite often. My daughter was in Archeology for a few years, and as a fair red head she had quite a...
Thank you for the veggie garden support :-) [ATTACH] This is the first picking of Haskaps. They are like a cross between a blueberry and a...
