À ton avis, elle est où la vie, la biodiversité ? Qu'est ce qui va mieux résister à la chaleur cet été ?
C'est aussi se poser la question "C'est quoi un jardin propre ?" #jardin#permaculture
These wonderful little Q-tip sprouty things are Swamp Beacon [Mitrula elegans] mushrooms, and up until yesterday I had never found one. In fact they aren’t listed in many of my guides or fungi websites I visit. They mostly grow on fallen conifer needles IN BOGS… so you can see why they don’t get a lot of press!
Is my small raised bed meadow a 'habitat'? Absolutely.
Ignoring the multitude of tiny flies, aphids and mites and looking just at the medium to large more ornate insects and spiders, the species count grows by at least five a week during the warmer months.
That despite my inattentiveness and their propensity to hide. Many are authentically meadow creatures, common there but not ordinarily in gardens.
The ability of insects to home in on a tiny patch is extraordinary. Though from their perspective it is a vast jungle with many different microclimates.
It acts as a hotel between larger wild patches and as home in its own right. Anyone with a garden can and should do this.
In this month's composting newsletter: understanding the thermic phases, recording the sounds made by the bugs in the compost heap. Plus three songs about worms.
@theTractor@plants I was wondering about that. I recently got a greenhouse where I put plants in that just won’t survive in my room conditions. It’s not fully insulated so I thought I don’t need a fan. Maybe I need one.
probably yes, but arm yourself with fungicide because when it attacks a plant it is difficult to make it recover, at least in my experience. Good luck! 😉

Has someone a cherry tree with two different varieties crafted onto one Gisela5 or really tiny cherry spindles/espaliers?
I have either space for two tiny spindles/espaliers or one solitary tree with two varieties (for pollination).
Hat jemand Erfahrung mit zweierlei Süßkirschen auf einer Gisela5-Unterlage oder wirklich kleine Säulen/Spalierkirschen?
Ich habe Platz für entweder zwei Säulen/Spalierbäume oder einen Baum mit zwei Sorten. #garten#pflanzen#obstbaum
Questo inverno l'ho messo a dimora ed ora eccolo qui, bello e profumato.
È l'alium roseum, per le sfumature rosate dei petali. In Toscana lo chiamano "aglio di serpe" o "aglio viperino".
Si trova selvatico sui bordi delle strade di campagna e nei campi, ovunque nella regione mediterranea.
In questa pianta i fiori sono raccolti in dense ombrelle, le quali sono inizialmente avvolte da spire papiracee.
Talvolta le ombrelle contengono anche piccoli bulbilli che, cadendo, possono dare origine a nuove piante. (Guardate bene la foto nel precedente tooth, ci sono!)
CURIOSITÀ: Le cellule intatte di tutti gli Allium contengono alliina, un amminoacido inodore che per azione dell'enzima alliinasi, liberantesi con la rottura del bulbo, si trasforma in allicina, composto fortemente odoroso.
Next no dig bed in preparation, just waiting for some rain to wet the card before adding compost and woodchip. It’s quite a damp bed as in a little hollow so eventually will be home to a willow #permaculture#NoDig#Veganic#ForestGarden#Gardening
