Gardening, Puttering and Adventure Thread, April 27I love it when Sharon (Willow's Apprentice) goes on a photo excursion and sends us great images of plants. Perhaps we would pay more attention to the beauty around us if we focused like she does. How is your weather? We have had a touch of an April Shower, while the cherries are ripening (not the best for the orchardists, but we have gone through so much drought). Anything going on where you are?
I sent a picture last fall of my tiny fignomenal fig tree. The little discolored leaf is the last of the leaves that lasted over winter. Maybe three weeks ago it suddenly took off and looks pretty healthy now. Love that little fig tree! The plant is coming right along. Let us know how the tomatoes taste! This is what they look like:
A Daily Dose of History, April 26 By the time he was in his 40's, John James Audubon was prosperous and world famous. But not before having to overcome lots of adversity. In America, after surviving a bout of yellow fever, John met and fell in love with Lucy Bakewell, eventually marrying her. Finally, in 1826, when John was 41 years old, his wife encouraged (and paid for) him to go to Europe to try to find a publisher for his collection of drawings. And there he became a sensation. His work was immensely popular, he had audiences with royalty, and his book The Birds of America became a smash hit. He is remembered today as one the greatest naturalists and nature artists in history. . . Ah, Nature Lots of these guys around today. Not very appetizing. Google disagreed. Recommended that I respond that they were great! Puttering Flower arranging: Form, color, variety
Adventure M. Gutierrez Recognize the flower? Gardens of The Horde A couple of weeks ago, we featured a photo of the front yard of a long time lurker in Washington State: Thanks! That was fun! More greatness on the way! Here's a detail from the photo of the front yard, in case you don't remember:
Hope everyone has a nice weekend.
