  • As an aside, imgur changed their url handling and my habit of using the i.imgur links to mirror here no longer works. Anyone got a recommendation for a luddite like myself?

  • Oof, yeah. I would be feeling the same way

  • Are we ever not showing off elderberries?

    Yours is gorgeous!

  • That's such an awesome find

  • Michael's bought the JoAnn lines like Big Twist so you should be able to find those again soon. At least, that's what I heard from a Michael's employee

  • Thanks, I'm really proud of everyone who donated their plants and time, and for the folks in town for showing up like they did.

  • Our town library's plant and bake sale happened on Saturday, and we raised over 1200 dollars for the programs they put on - a 107% increase in donations from last year!

    I've basically run out of small pots for bringing plants to market, but choose to see it as proof that my seed starting has gotten much more consistent. I do need to find more though, because I have something like 300 seedlings that need more space. Sent some texts and emails and also metaphorically begged for them during the plant sale so hopefully folks come through, since I refuse to commission the creation of more plastic.

  • Please give him some of it! And some pats and a "whosagoodboy" because he is

  • Hi Petey! Even your serious face is very smile inducing

  • He reportedly sent an email that read " [...] It's chalk not paint"

    A police report that Cox shared with the news station alleged that officers were unable to determine whether his improvised crosswalk had been created with permanent paint

    That tracks

  • That's what she said! (About the plant)

  • Some fun facts:

    • The root ball is about 4 feet / 1.3m across
    • I stopped counting at 40 crowns
    • It's been nice knowing you all 😅
  • Absolutely lovely, and a great photo to boot!

    Fun fact, they can be either, depending on the species!

    OP, if you're based in the US check out USwildflowers. Further down on the page os the option to sort by state

  • Sucks for those beekeepers but on the bright side, that's 250M bees that won't be contracting and transmitting diseases from being forcibly intermingled with thousands and thousands of other hives with varying levels of hygiene, thus becoming vectors of their own when they get back.

  • Please don't feel like you have to answer this, but out of curiosity: how were their prices? I've seen some places charge ridiculous amounts for serviceberries (and other plants). Still, that sounds right up my alley and I'll have to make a visit the next time I'm out that way

  • Don't beat yourself up! It can be very difficult to sprout seeds in spaces that aren't cultivated or prepped for them, and planting them in competitive spaces, while rewarding, ups the difficulty. If there's a garden center that you like, go and ask them if they're willing to give you some of their plug trays. Some distributors take those back but not many, so they might be more than willing to give you some for your starts. Then you can transplant those plugs of yours and get a leg up on your garden plans 💕

  • Always happy to help!

  • Boo less time to garden, but I'm so glad you're seeing positive results for what you have had the time for (also hoping you've had positive results from the things that have been eating your gardening time)
