@Marie2020 I’m an ole lady too … or mature, also a senior or a distinguished lady very experienced . Perhaps somewhat wise , but we’ll seasoned or maybe even a bit vintage. but mostly ‘Venerable.’ I’m not a sleepyhead at the moment. To buzy readying the garden for a wet and wild winter that is...
Marie hoping you’ll be home soon. Enjoy what time you have out and about. A few Nancy phone talks or even face time? I don’t know what phone service you have. This will be a learning curve for Nancy and she is such a smart gal and a sweetheart .
While your away you have a good focus on showing...
Build a small trellis or arbor to keep them from walking across the entire area which makes them much easier to trim and control.
Maybe contact the rose society near you and maybe they can help advise on the name of that beautiful rose .
The roses look like double blooms and a beautiful shade...
Special seeds are available for growing huge pumpkins. I haven’t grown these 124 pound pumpkins recently but it was a fun experience and entered this pumpkin in the county fair competition. To watch them grow so large and by the end of the season I snapped a pic of the dogs next to the pumpkin...
Ground bees are very aggressive in most cases this time of year. There is one exception and not aggressive bee nest and I leave that ground nest alone. But the aggressiveness of the other ground bees are a threat to anyone near by.
My best method to eliminate them is at night when they are all...
Have you tried broccolini? It’s my fav geenie.
Broccolini is a green vegetable that is a naturally developed hybrid of broccoli and Chinese broccoli (gai lan)
Also known as "baby broccoli," it has long, thin stalks and smaller florets than standard broccoli.
Flavor and uses.

I looked up your question and this is what I found……
A pullet is a sexually immature young female chicken, while a cockerel is a sexually immature young male chicken. Both are juveniles under a year old, but "pullet" applies to females that have not yet started to lay eggs, and "cockerel"...
Marie sorry to hear of your friends death. Very sad when out friends leave this world. It that time when we remember all the fun and good thing that brought the friendship together in the first place. 🙏🏽

Garlic chips look great.
Maybe I’m a bit late to this discussion , I use a IPad … much easier to carry around does everything I need . I didn’t like a lap top either. To bulky and good golly molly even though it wasn’t stationary it ran on batteries after recharged it was to much to work on without sitting down or at a...
Thank you @marie.
My little hummer buddy followers me everywhere when outside in the garden.. I named her Miss Poppy..I rescued her when she was just a baby was stuck in the feeder or fell asleep on the side bar.
Here’s her lil nest.
Only in the last few years has our area been invaded by Belding squirrels. We have several other squirrels like grey squirrel, fox squirrel and chipmunks that like to rob tubers and bulbs from the patio pots. Also moles , voles , rabbits all the normal complaints that garden goodies attract. But...
I have used traps to snag the ground squirrels. The past 2 years this trap called the Squirrelinator worked very well. Could catch 3 or more at a time. But they learned how to grab the bait over the top of the cage . Soo I just got a new trap a Tube Tunnel,trap , made by the forest service ...
We have similar weather here too… Mother Nature is very Fickle lately especially since climate change . I think my zone has changed. It’s colder in winters and hotter in summers. It’s touch and go when it’s warm enough to harden off plants or when ground temps are warm enough to plant.
We have...
That would be a great idea. I have seeds from burpee in my seed stash. They are the doubles same color. Hard to find. So pretty the double flowers are so perfect they don’t look real. 😜
