Baton Rouge, saw this little visitor in my mini-greenhouse yesterday. Yes, I rescued it after the photo. It was near my patch of wild dewberries that are starting to blossom! Checkerspot?? Can anyone confirm that i.d.?

I noticed that some of my snow drops had begun to show so I cleared some of the thicker snow cover(we had 3ft deep snow in places last week) over another garden with spring bulbs(the covered snow drops were popping up as well). In process I ...

Must be doing something right in my soil. Just finished turning over a garden patch to get it ready for winter vegies and I reckon there were almost more worms than soil. ALL my vegetable peelings and scraps get tipped into the gardens, EXCEPT onion ...

This sounds like fantastic advice, and I'm going to try it:

I'm a casual gardener: I mostly plant what I like when I have the chance to take care of it. It looks as though a lot of my stuff will end up dead from our freeze in February, which has had me kind of down. However, I just got what is great news ...

This is a honey bee. The pollen on her legs is from dandelions. Her tongue is sticking out due to what killed her that was on the dandelions. It’s spring, dandelions are the bees first food. This bee is dead from weed killer spread on what we see...

Most of my potatoes have already popped through the surface of my garden here in Florida , and I have my first tomato blossoms of the year.

It seems that my Coleus plants have an alluring taste to the local stray cats. I don't know what the plants exude from their leaves but I just found one very ' high' tomcat happily licking at the leaves, it absolutely NO notice of me, its eyes were ...

Every year the cedar wax wings invade my yard, the day before the chinese photina was covered in pounds of red berries (pic 1), they also stripped my holly tree, now they are starting on my mexican fan palm. It looks like the big freeze has killed ...

2 of the worst banes to any Aussie Gardener in the Aussie Outback, the 3 Cornered Jack prickles/thorns and Couch Grass. A couple of mls of rain, a bit of warmer weather and they come up everywhere and almost anywhere as well. 3 Cornered Jacks can ...

A little more on bird feeding, this one is thoughtful and in depth, with some great video footage too.

Just a question, has anyone ever taken the seeds from a slice of kiwi and tried to grow a plant?

We have a crazy weather, Austin is in state of emergency. Currently is 18F and a mix of icy rain and snow. I brought most of my plants in the garage. But I left some out (under covers). My fear is that those left out are done and its too late to ...

Tonight my spring garden of tomatoes and potatoes are in the ground, mulch in all of the rows and paths, and cages installed around my tomato plants. I am still eating tomatoes left over from my winter garden.

Have spaded up the soil for my spring garden, laid out raised rows, and fertilized. Will have tomato plants and seed potatoes in the ground by Friday, at the latest.

Winter flowers in the snow. Witch Hazel. 1,2 In my garden. Winter aconite, 3,4, in the local church yard and 5 in my garden. And snowdrops for a very monochrome study.

My winter-blooming Hellebores are keeping me hopeful, waiting for their neighboring Daphne blossoms to pop open!

Things are not blooming outside - mountian area of NC - but my orchids & christmas cactus are ❤

Something to do now, at least in moderate climates, and the Northern hemisphere, but which brings you a promise of summer.

My neighbors seem to enjoy "gifting" me with "project" materials. Guess they've figured out I can't turn this stuff down. 🙄 The giant white cabinet is from a kitchen upgrade the guy next door had done. It's 91.5" tall. Designed to house ovens, ...

We've decided to attempt a "less maintenance" garden section dedicated to berries. We've large strawberry beds around our property that are virtually maintenance free until the plants wear out. We're adding these to our garden this coming spring. ...

Despite the cold, the spring bulbs are still forcing their way up. The interesting point is that, unlike most plants which grow by dividing and increasing their cell numbers, the spiring bulbs increase their size, by inflating their existing cells ...

Finished and "road tested" the first rolling trolley for my various power tools. I've deemed it a success. One down, eight to go.

On my morning walk I came across these gorgeous flowers.

Sunny with a high of 45°F today. So I took the opportunity to try and straighten up one of our garage bays. I re-stacked the wood I've not run through my chainsaw mill. The recent cherry logs are on the bottom. They're going to require a least a...
