Those were all beautiful, Keplar,too.
You may have gotten all the water out. The cold can damage the hose directly, no help from frozen water needed, sorry to say.
Lovely! My yard still looks barren.Theres no rain for a week. I had to water my daffodils last night because the blooms are squat short-usually they get taller than the greens. so I used my hose for the first time and need a new hose reel.the water froze and cracked the plastic casing with water gushing out..so that's what I get for leaving the hose out for the winter-I thought I got all the water out of the hose...:/
Some more irises-- this is 'Surf Lady'
A particularly vibrant 'Chasing Rainbows' iris
'Purple Classic' and 'Yellow Classic'... ones that I found in neglected beds on my bike ride. I don't know what kind they really are, but they're sure pretty. That yellow looks great with 'Chasing Rainbows' doesn't it?
And my 'Ol' Reliable' peach TB of uncertain variety. It might be 'Pink Taffeta', but I'm not sure. Gorgeous nonetheless...
A 'Yukon Gold' POTATO PLANT! It's twice this size now, and the purple fingerling plant is catching up rapidly. Yes, it will produce a few nice potatoes, enough for probably a batch of potato salad and some extras to toss in a pan of roast beef.
We have 4 seasons in Canada too - almost winter, winter, still winter and road construction
Well, I'm in Texas so summer comes early here. We like to say that we have 4 seasons here: almost summer, summer, still summer and "that ice storm we had last week".
Well, I happen to have some drought-tough things here so I never go completely flowerless.Droughts are a way of life here in N. Texas, and so are floods. Honestly, feast or famine so I have things that carry through most weather that comes our way.I'm currently a desert dweller and I'm from the Midwest so I haven't a clue what I could grow. Except oranges. Apparently they grow like mulberry bushes back in Nebraska. And aloe, which is apparently a 23rd here. Maybe if we ever come up with some money, I can set up a greenhouse inside the apt, but Rune is worried about bugs. So I want a garden, but can't necessarily have one.
