I did a video on my YouTube channel last Fall plan

I did a video on my YouTube channel last Fall planting bulbs in containers. I received a comment asking if planting bulbs in containers really works and if they actually do well. Nothing like a quick vid of different flowers from bulbs to show how very well they do. I took this last Spring and look forward to another Spring filled with container grown bulbs!

My potting bench on my back deck. I have moved the tubs that had the petunias and replaced them with some evergreens. I love my rosemary topiary I created from cuttings. I am working in some lavender ones now and testing out some different techniques.

Planning my garden for summer. I have 3 more of these darker blue Delphiniums to put out and I keep changing my mind where I want them. I need to remind myself I have a lot more seeds I can germinate this year so I don’t need to overthink it. I took hordes of photos and did garden journal videos so I can look back at them to get perspective. It helps a lot!

I am anticipating Spring with planting loads of tulips and daffodils. Though it is a lot of work I know the reward will be sweet. I had to plant in raised beds with hardware cloth beneath so the voles and gophers won’t eat them.

Going through photos to create a slideshow present

Going through photos to create a slideshow presentation for Mom’s memorial. This was taken on the way to the summer convention a few years back. Mom was our convention buddy for the past 10 years. That back seat feels so empty. Miss you mom.

My White thanksgiving cactus is blooming! This one

My White thanksgiving cactus is blooming! This one is called Melissa. I have another white one but it is edged with pink. I love having these bloom for me this time of year.

This is for @countryfirsts. I knew she we appreciate some really big pine cones. I put a measuring tape in front on the second photo to give a bit better perspective. These are from the huge Sugar Pine tree across the street from me. The smaller cone is from a Ponderosa Pine. The evil looking pine cone at far left is from a friends house a few miles down the road and I have yet to look up what kind of pine that is from. Even though I have lived here for decades it has only been in the last 10 years I really took time to notice how many types of pine cones there are.

We bought this little chicken pen from @tractorsupply to test out for folks wanting to keep back yard chickens. For the low cost my husband said it was not bad and putting it together was not terribly difficult especially if you review the video they have and follow the photo instructions. Most won’t need the electrical fencing like we do. Mr. Bad Bear has been a nuisance lately (he is seen slinking away in the next photo after killing some of my chickens) so we have had to resort to drastic measures to protect the flock. So we shall see how it holds up over the next year and let you know our opinion.

Terrible lighting but I had to share this peachy Thanksgiving cactus blooming. Such gorgeous color!
