Gardening, Puttering and Adventure Thread, July 22Happy July, everybody! Above and below, some roses from Switzerland. What's growing where you are? Our forecast today is 108 degrees, but it should cool off at night, more than in the desert. How are you folks doing there? A niece and her family are currently moving cross-country and should arrive there soon. Bad timing for a move, I think. I guess it's pretty hot in much of the country right now. And a Rose of Sharon, I think.
We had to pick all the crabapples because the birds were getting into them, so we made a batch of jelly. Got 6 little jars from the 3 cups of juice and a pretty amber color. Sweet and tart, tried the one in the fridge already -- they all jelled and popped their lids but we couldn't resist trying one ... Mmmmm Hi KT, Della looks like a good helper! Bet she keeps the rodents away! And the potatoes look great! Time lapse, garden beds Hi, KT! Well, I don't see Steve Martin, and I don't see those Marigolds under the squash leaves anymore, either. Fast growth!
Do you need one of these, or no?
From Eromero, back in May: Broad daylight, eating jelly from oriole feeder. First is a Soldier butterfly, it mimics the Monarch quite closely. (taking advantage of the fact that the monarch is poisonous to birds). There are 3 species that mimic the Monarch; the Viceroy, the Queen, and the Soldier, with the Soldier rarely seen outside of Texas. The lack of many white dots at the leading edge of the wing mark this one as a Soldier butterfly. thanks! Soldier butterflies are rare. Sometimes called "Tropical Queens". Gardens of The Horde My Missouri Potted Plumeria From Shadowbass: I thought you might like to see my 6' tall plumeria. It's my version of the tropics in the Ozarks. It smells like ambrosia and gardenias. Just remarkable! Plumeria is hard enough to grow in California! Hope everyone has a nice weekend.
