This is my final end of days plant list for the Southern US. #Gardening#Herbalism#ClimateDiary
Ok, here's an update on the Verbena bonariensis situation from my post yesterday. Less than 12 hours later and the two plants have been almost totally skeletonized by something I cannot see. There is a healthy Verbena less than 6 inches to the left of the picture that is totally untouched. Any thoughts? #gardening #allotment #zone6b #NewEngland #insects #entomology @gardening
Visited Schreiner's iris gardens yesterday, and started work on the raised beds. As always too much to do in the garden, but enjoying every bit of color to be found! #pnwgardening#bloomscrolling#gardening
Has anyone had any experience of using anaerobic digester digestate (the solid stuff that comes out the end)? One of the community gardens I’m involved with has been offered a tonne bag full of it.
I think it can be used as a mulch but we’ve been warned not to add it too thickly. I’ve been gifted a small bag of the digestate today & it smelled a bit like ammonia.
Any tips? #Gardening@gardening #AnaerobicDigester
I built this "Little Free Art Gallery" for my wife a few years ago. She's turned into a prolific artist over the years and creates way more art than our house can handle, and she's run out of friends to gift them to. So now she can give her art away to the neighborhood.
This #Monday morning I’m bored and pondering seed things, such as bigleafed maple whirlybirds at the park, chive flowers, and garlic scapes from the garden, which I ate. Have also consumed the year’s first garlic cloves, a whole bulb already. #GetOutside#Gardening#GrowYourOwn
