I am looking for suggestions of what to plant in a rather large pot on my porch. I want it to be short, hardy, and bushy and if it includes blooms eventually all the better! (The pot is a mini wine barrel)
It is supposed to snow this weekend. We usually get a couple big storms each winter. This year we have had zero snow. We shall see if the snow pans out!
Asparagus can grow up to 10 inches in just 24 hours if the weather is warm! Bull kelp is also a fast-growing seaweed that can grow up to 2 feet per day!
I love Honey bunches of oats with strawberries! I found another really yummy combo that is more of a snack - Raisin Rosemary crisps from Trader Joe's + cream cheese + ripe strawberries!!
Today in 1935 the game Monopoly goes on sale for the first time.
I remember playing that game a lot. I think the game Catan has kinda taken Monopoly's place in the last several years.
I just learned that plants know what time of day it is and they use sugar signals to do so! They keep track of the time so they don't starve at night. They also need to know the time of day to know when to release scents, open flowers and just when they should spend energy to grow!
