    Pelargoniums are a favorite. I have a pretty nice collection from cutting given from friends. They are as easy as Heucheras… keep ‘em coming. Great job Daniel.

    Today in the garden, I've been busy tidying up the flower beds and pruning some overgrown bushes.
    Thinking about revamping my outdoor space. I have an old set of wooden chairs and a table. The wood is weathered, and some of the chairs are a bit shaky. I'm considering replacing them with something fresh and stylish. Rattan furniture has caught my eye recently. I like the natural look of it. Though, I'd love to hear from others who have experience with this kind of material. Or any other besides wood. How does it hold up over time?

    It's too wet to do anything outside so I've started pricking out my Snapdragon seedlings, they're so fiddly and small to do.

    A rare Sunny day again today. Hope to finish mowing the pastures…Bumpy layered ground , mowing sitting on my mower feels like riding a bucking bronco.. can’t get the big tractor started , so opt for the garden tractor. Ouch…

    Lots of distraction today the hawks are following me as I mow ready to grab the voles that the mower kicks up. I guess you’d call it a symbiotic thing .

    Oké. There are so many choices. I had short yellow ones last year. They bloomed literally the entire season.

    Nothing today. The wind made it so cold at recess. The kids just wanted to go in, I know how they felt but we can't go in unless it's 15 F or below.....real feel was low 20s. Then it started snowing around 2-2:30 and sticking about 3. Just yesterday it was spring weather! I'll be working on a quilt this weekend.

    Yes you can get about 6in tall to 2ft tall and a trailing one for baskets,mine are about 18in. and the same colour not a mixed colour.
    They do flower all season, so it's good for the summer.

    Cut out some of the old stems from the blueberry bushes on the patio, the grass is too wet to walk on.

    Do you have your pepper varieties chosen?
