    Camp Chrysanthemummmmmmmmmm!

    I think I saw a cat in a tree using them, but it disappearred. There's a guy in town that's about 80 that wears them when he bikes. He's not just a regular biker though. He's got a one of those 3 wheeled ones that you lean back on and last I heard was going to South America on a bike trip. The...

    Camp Chrysanthemummmmmmmmmm!

    Matching swim fins? Maybe Camp Chrysmanthemum should be a sewing camp. We can sew up some binoc blinders, too.

    Do you have a story to share?

    No pictures to my story, but when my neighbor and I weren't knocking Japanese beetles into an old can with gas and water in it after dissecting their legs from their bodies we were by the barn digging in the dirt making housing complexes for grasshoppers and praying mantises. We made small...

    Pumpkin seeds sprouting inside pumpkin??

    I've gotten tomatoes before that had sprouting seeds inside. I never saved them because I didn't think they'd produce decent plants or fruit anyway. Shooting the pumpkins made me laugh.

    Winter Sowing

    Winter solstice made me remember something from the Old Farmer's Almanac. Planting according to moon phase. Above ground plants during new moon and underground ones during the full moon. And thanks for the info about the heating vent. I'm not going to put anything there now.

    Camp Chrysanthemummmmmmmmmm!

    treeman, have you got your Marty Feldman binocs? :D Scuba suits in the sun? And those aren't "flags." We call them "water wings." I think I'll ask Santa for some swim fins for Christmas! Maybe they'll double as snowshoes. Multipurpose camp footwear.

    Are There Gotta Have Annuals?

    My new love I started last year is cleome. I got 3 pink ones and they were so cool looking. I'll have those in my front flowerbed from now on. I saved some seeds so I hope I can get them to grow myself so I can have a bunch of them. I love all the ones mentioned, too.

    Deer

    My mom was just saying earlier that she hadn't seen any deer across the street in her yard and about an hour later 2 does went full tilt right between my house and my neighbor's. I called mom and told her she should have been looking out her window.

    Recipe Cooking, etc., with Sweet Woodruff

    Thank you very much everyone. Yes, that does help. I love the flowers, too. They're so dainty and the scent doesn't seem to bother my allergies at all so that's a plus.

    Recipe Cooking, etc., with Sweet Woodruff

    I wasn't sure whether I should ask this here or in the herb section. I have this across the front of my house the past year it was lovely green all summer. It must be getting better light since my old tree came down. But I'm wondering what can I use it in. I've seen wines and jellies made with...

    lawns, a love hate relationship

    We have about 2.75 acres and when the horse lady down the street put a 2 lane street through the back woods I started letting my back field grow up for the wildlife back there. We still mow about half of it, but with the newer tractor it only takes about 2 hours instead of 4 or 5. If I had my...

    Who Grows Berries/Fruit

    I'm in zone 5, Kale and my grandma had raspberries and peppermint growing in the front yard for a very long time. I don't think she ever did anything to it other than getting the Japanese beetles off the berry plants. We have a few inches of topsoil and then clay. I don't remember the canes ever...

    Winter Sowing

    I did try it with some Roma tomato seeds last year in 3 pots. I had a little bit of a late start, but I still had about a half dozen plants come up that way. I used gallon milk jugs. I do have a question though. The exhaust from my gas furnace is just a couple feet from ground level. Would...

    Weed Garden?!

    I was driving through a semi private drive to get to work several years ago and stopped the car dead in the road when I saw the biggest gone to seed dandelion heads I'd ever seen growing in the ditch! They turned out to be salsify, but I nabbed some of the heads and brought them home to plant...

    Bush with red berries

    I've picked a lot of rose hips and they could be used for arrangements, too. Bittersweet isn't really red, but that's used a lot. I think it's a vine though. It's been a long time since I've seen that growing.
