I'm populating new garden beds, and will be for the next few years. A friend gave me some hosta seeds. I've only transplanted hostas. Has anyone tried them from seed before? Research seems to indicate they are tough to germinate. I was thinking of ...

Four years ago today FB reminds me, I posted a picture of the orchid outside my window by the desk (L). Today also it's flowering (R), it took no notice of the hurricane whatsoever (2017), and flowers at least twice a year.

My last zucchini plant wilted in the night which feels like a tangible sign of fall here on the Oregon Coast. Friends are coming to tour my garden which will be a lot of what it will look like rather than what it is. Even the stuff in the ...

Woke up this morning to suddenly slightly chilly weather. It is supposed to drop to mid-twenties by early Tuesday, so I felt like communing with some of my last brave little perennial flowers before I headed to work this morning. (Drat! This site ...

This unseasonable cold has really been frustrating! First I spent a lot of time conditioning some soil and then seeding a low maintenance grass seed in October, the normally recommended time to plant that seed. Just about the time I might have ...
