November To-Do's


Aside from raking up leaves, blowing twice a day, and
being pelleted by acorns, we do have some work to do!

  • plant pansies, snapdragons, sweet allysum, use pansy mate (or miracle gro organic) for fertilizing
  • time for tree and shrub planting, too
  • divide daylillies, monkeygrass(liriope), blackeyed Susans, hostas to fill in or share with someone
  • buy seeds to plant now! hollyhock, larkspur, California poppy for envious bloom in spring
  • buy and plant spring flowering bulbs! daffodils, crocus, hyacinths, tulips
  • plant amaryllis and narcissus bulbs to force inside- great gifts...
  • last chance to cut that basil, put inside in vase until ready to make pesto
  • sign up for WreathWorkshop!
  • Wake me up, I can't believe there are only 2 weeks to T-Day!
Blessings from the Garden.

FlowerCamp Memories...

The first session of FlowerCamp is complete.
It was definitely a day of
Flowers Fellowship and Fun!

I have just arrived home so
thought I would post these great pics...

It all started with a "Red Zinnia Clipper"...

I explained the "stategy" for the morning. Some went straight
for the flower field...
Others stayed on the porch to begin their designs!
Still others took the opportunity to clip a
few for tonite's party at home!!

Some finishing touches...

A BEAUTIFUL finish for all!
There are still a few spots
left for Session II of FlowerCamp...Check out August
blog for details on FlowerCamp. Directions mailed with
registration information!!
Blessings from the Garden.
see you
