Saturday Gardening and Puttering Thread 1/25/20 [KT]![]() Hello, gardeners, putterers and dreamers. Anybody starting to get cabin fever? This thread is here to help. My cousin (not the one with the geraniums in her basement) writes: My amaryllis are cheering us up on this cold,cold, cold day. The red one is on its second round. It has already had 24 blooms in December. ![]() Note the herbs growing on the table in the first photo, too. Gardens of The Horde: 19th Jan. First daffodil of the year. About two weeks early. Northern Alabama Zone 7 Le Garde Vieux ![]() Meanwhile, NaughtyPine has no daffodils, and writes: What a difference a day makes! The black squirrel photo is first. You can see the frozen remainder of the flooding that prevented me from cleaning out the sedum pots. The second is Saturday morning. Puttering in the garden is suspended until further notice. As for edible gardening, Shanks for the memory, writing from the Central Valley of California, had a late comment last week with good information and some questions for The Horde: Our house has had the crud since a week after Thanksgiving. The doc is no use, rest, fluids, yada, yada e muy yada. We've consumed gallons of drinks made with elderberry syrup and all the bone broth in the freezer. PUTTERING: Photography, Travel and Night Skies Via Hank Curmudgeon, be prepared for spring by getting a copy of Roadside Flowers at Full Speed. Maybe do a Powerpoint presentation for your friends and family: If you're a fan of wildflowers, I'm sure you've noticed the same thing I have - all the field guides out there have one massive flaw. They're designed for people who are slowly ambling about in prairies and other natural areas with nothing better to do than stop and stare closely at the minute details of flowers. ![]() Might be able to work some painting into this kind of project, too. Something beyond impressionistic? Dreaming about travel? How about taking a break to live on Swiss time? Interesting essay and nice photos. About a woman who owns a creperie: She doesn't have to work, she explained. Her husband runs sports camps that do very well, and her children are out of the house-- they've left their small Alpine village, never to return, just as she did long ago, though she somehow made her way back, and perhaps they will, too. All to say: The creperie business isn't here to make money. Switzerland does attract a lot of tourists. ![]() Otherwise, how could you live by taking photos of the Andromeda Galaxy by night, and running a tattoo parlor by day, in a village of 900 people? Stunning photos at the link. ![]() We have seen some wonderful photos of the night sky from The Horde lately. It will be interesting to see if things change if Betelgeuse explodes. Back on earth, you may have notice the Swiss dog listening to President Trump, with cows on her collar (in the thread before this one). They really love cows in Switzerland. Even near housing. ![]() And here is a Swiss horse. ![]() The dog in this morning's photo is Gioia, who may be our future guide to Swiss gardening. Here she is as a puppy. ![]() If you are planning a trip, don't forget to take some garden photos. If you would like to send information and/or photos for the Saturday Gardening Thread, the address is: ktinthegarden Include your nic unless you want to remain a lurker. | Recent Comments
