First flowers of spring! (sadly not in my garden)
First flowers of spring! (sadly not in my garden)
This is how I know it’s almost February.
Did I say my garden had all turned brown? But you see, daisies don’t believe in turning all the way brown. Daisies dream of becoming the green plague that will one day cover the Earth. (Maybe in partnership with vinca – it depends whether they’re forced into a stalemate or not.)
When’s the last time you played with milkweed seeds? They’re so fluffy and soft!
Now that we’ve reached the end of the season, I wanted to show you a round-up of all my pretty roses. I can’t say that I’m an excellent rose gardener. My primary gardening technique is to keep planting things until some things don’t die, and that’s pretty much the same approach I use with my roses. This means 1) I have kind of a random assortment and 2) I count things as a success even if I get only two…
Can you spot the bunny? Sshhh. It’s hiding.
You know you don’t turn your compost heap often enough when there are thistles and irises growing up out of it.
I just caught the baby bunny who lives near my back patio delicately eating fallen flower petals.
