What Is Your Weather Like & What's Up In Your Garden?

[Guest guest]

Today, here in Southern California, it is beautiful. The sky is blue and there

is a slight crispness to the air. Yesterday was overcast most of the day and

today is sparkling!

 

No garden this year. We did the whole vegetable garden thing last year and

this year we've taken a break but we sure do miss the fresh veggies and made

soap with the extra cucumbers on hand.

[Dave:] Yes, it is! About thirty mile north of San Diego, there’s a fall

feeling to the air, even though the sky is blue. Some leaves are beginning

to turn. The coyotes, who tend to pull back into more remote areas during

the summer, are back patrolling the creek across the street. The first

vee-shaped flocks heading south are beginning to be seen. Saw a fox out

back the other night, an owl the night before. Last night was the harvest

moon, and the moonlight was spectacular. You could almost read by it.

55 degrees, damp and dark early here in Philadelphia. The garden is going to

sleep for the most part. I got me a weed whacker and plan to use it tomorrow.

I just love that thing. It's electric and does a helluva job.

Here in Minas Gerais, Brazil, it is rainy. Springtime is in its full and

flowering almost eveything. The main color is bluish purple

In the garden the azaleas are magnificent, and the white one is gorgeous.

The lobelias are fantastic bordering the beds of geraniums. All nice and

purple.

The lyn seed is flowering too in a pale lilac.

The mini roses are lovely in many colours.

The trees are fantastic. Pau-brasil and guapuruvu covered in yellow flowers.

The herb garden is in full camomile and absynth.

Beautiful!

Hi Ane,

 

That sounds so beautiful! I wish we had transporter beams like on Star

Trek, cause I'd be coming over for tea!

 

We're supposed to be getting a cold front moving through and we're going

to be in the upper 60's and lower 70's for 2 whole days before it goes

back up to around 90 again! *lol* So I have my window to get into the

Autumn garden this week .. Its time to plant leafy greens and tomatoes

(I think ,

How wonderful to get a whiff of

spring in our fall!

Ane, are you growing any Rainforest herbs?

Apparently Chanca Piedra is so easy to

grow it is almost weedlike.

Richter's sells seeds for it, but they were

sold out by the time I ordered.

Next year!

60 to 70 is a COLD front?

I wanna move to Texas!

(not really)

 

Up here it is gorgeous fall weather.

The sky is blue, the sun is shining

on golden leaves, but the rivers are

mere trickles of what they should

be, there is no mushroom season,

and I am getting a bit worried.

 

In the garden we are wrapping things

up for the year.

Zuchini is hanging on in the green

house but the basil is gone.

Stevia, Thyme and Rosemary have

been put inside under grow lights till

spring. I'll try cloning some later.

 

Dahlia and marigolds still blooming,

together with Michaelmas daisies

and sedum.

 

I am drying the last herbs and

getting the garlic bed ready.

 

Market plants have been dug in,

pots and all, for a headstart next

year (I had a blast selling hardy

perennial bedding plants at the

farmers market).

 

Dandelion roots enriched with a bit

of yellow dock and burrdock are

steeping in apple cider vinegar.

I add to it whenever I have been

digging.

 

Echinacea is patiently waiting her

turn. We dig her up when the flowers

have died down.

 

That's about it!

Ieneke

Is this Chanca piedra our quebra pedra?

I wonder

If it is a kind of weed that is good for the kidneis and urinary system,I've

got it.

Plenty, and never use it (I live in a spa town with miraculous waters,

therefore, no kidney problems).

If I can be of any help let me know.

And Chris,

if you want to come over, even in thought you are very welcome. Fresh coffee

and quitandas like cheese bread, banana cakes, or tea and crumble pie English

style, are the specialities .

It rains...
