Saturday Gardening and Puttering Thread, January 30 [KT]Hi, everybody! Got snow? We have had rain, fog and frost. But there is some garden activity in parts of the nation. The photos above and below are from 40 miles north: (How did I ever write "40 moles north"?) The narcissus enjoyed the recent rains. They have a really strong onion smell this year: The bees are loving the rosemary. This is without a doubt the largest, most luxurious rosemary bush I have ever had. Yet another Trump success story. Birds Hi KT. Here are a some wild parrots that frequented our bird feeder in San Diego. San Diego parrots are all offspring of escaped pets. The first parrots were seen back around 1970 in some eucalyptus trees at the end of Point Loma. Since then they've spread all over town and like to form raucous flocks. They are always a treat to see. Edible Gardening and Puttering Last week, we had some discussion in the comments about cold weather greenhouses. Emmie provided a link which included the following impressive greenhouse. We have some real life example of greenhouse and related structures from The Horde, simple and not so simple, for later threads: On the puttering front, NaughtyPine was thinking about eagles, and then remembered an out-of-season woolly bear. Gardening in Israel You may recall that Neal in Israel has sent us some photos to cheer us through the winter. Here are some more, from December: I understand that cold weather has shut down most gardening activity for many people. The cyclamen is one of Israel's signature fall-winter wild flowers. It has been domesticated for gardeners by commercial breeders, who produce a wide range of special varieties. Gardens of The Horde Anonymous Lurker is new to garden photography, and has sent in a photo of the first daffodil of the season. So cheerful! Anything going on in your garden? Doing any puttering?
