I’m excited about the coming months for many reasons. We have a busy schedule exhibiting at garden shows and Green Festivals, and it’s always fun to travel and meet new people (and say hi to the folks you haven’t seen since last year). I’m excited for spring to arrive. Which it will. Eventually. I hope. I’m also excited to turn 29 this month. Okay, not really. But what I’m excited about today is that I had my Master Gardener...

I’ve wanted a worm bin for a while, but it was never an urgent issue. It’s not as though we don’t have a compost pile. For as long as I can remember, we’ve composted all of our food scraps. In fact, when I was a kid, I didn’t know what a garbage disposal was. I distinctly remember visiting a friend’s house and asking where they kept the compost bucket. The way I understood it, throwing food into the kitchen sink was a BAD thing....

I have some blooms after all! The flowers on our potted Tradescantia are so small that you can’t even see them unless you’re quite close. Seriously, that little flower is barely over 1/4″ across. I had quite a bit of trouble getting my camera to focus on it. I’ll be honest though, I’m still more excited about the sweet potato buds. Way to go! Every little flower helps. # Posted By Kathy from Cold Climate Gardening | 1/15/09 8:24 PM...
by Anneliese | Jan 15, 2009 | Garden Bloggers' Bloom Day, Gardening
I have never participated in Garden Bloggers’ Bloom Day for a few reasons. First of all, I’m an infrequent blogger, and remembering to post on the same day each month never felt like an important priority. Also, I travel a lot, especially in the spring during garden show season, so I’m not always around to see what’s coming up outside. And probably most importantly, I don’t really care that much about flowers. I know, sacrilege! Okay,...
