Frost Pictures

November 29, 2010 by Jeanne

This morning we had our first really hard frost. It was 22 when I stepped outside to walk the dog.  As I walked over to the driveway, the sun’s rays hit the flower garden, and the ice crystals glittered in the sun.  I could only marvel at the beautiful frost pictures…the leaves coated with ice, making pretty patterns, ice crystals hanging from the rose leaves, and more.  So I took pictures to show you the garden in all its frosty beauty today.

It’s that time of year when everyon asks, “What can I make with summer squash?”. The time when neighbors sneak bags of summer squash onto porches. When farmer’s markets are brimming with yellow and green squash, zucchini, and all manner of Cucurbitaceae, the plant family that gives, and gives, until it can’t give anymore. If…

Growing Marshmallow Plant

Growing marshmallow plant has been on my gardening to-do list for quite some time. I’ve read about it in herbal books and grown its cousins in the Malvaceae family from seed. The dark purple mallow plant I have thrives in my little garden by the shed, so I thought, “Why not grow marshmallow there?” I…
