I love working in my yard!

Today was a beautiful day so hubby and I decided to work on our yard today. Helicopters! I’ve started bringing the seedlings (tomato, bell pepper, catnip) outside to get them hardy, I guess is what you call it. So far so good! In a few days I am going to start exposing them to periods [...]

Iris’s on the run!

HI! I am an amateur garderner at best, but I know it takes time to learn. We recently just bought our first house and well….I have some iris’s in my backyard but there’s no rhyme or reason to them. Can I dig them up and transplant them? Or will that kill them?

What I thought might have been German Bearded Iris ‘Titan’s Glory’, was in fact one of my original ‘Royal Knight‘ instead. Ah well, [...]

New member intro post

Hi. I am sort of new to having a garden of my own, and I have never had what you might call a green thumb. I used to help my mom in her garden, but she was an extremely basic kind of gardener, so as far as I know, you weed, water and pick your [...]

Update on indoor herbs – help with gnats, please?

Hey. Our herbs are doing pretty good – except the cilantro, which basically only lasted a couple weeks after we got it. Otherwise, the mint, thyme, basil, and rosemary are doing great so far. The sage we have is doing so-so, but it looks like half of the plant is dying and the other half [...]
