GARDENER IN WINTER

I’m back to blogging after AWOL for a year. With a lot of things going on aside from the pandemic and a full-time job, I’ve been doing easy posting on Instagram instead of blogging. But I do miss writing, researching and taking photos with a camera instead of iPhone. Here I am… With snow covered garden and frigid cold outside, it’s the best time to … Continue reading GARDENER IN WINTER

My new acquisition a Winter Jasmine (Jasminum polyanthum)finally bloomed. It has a light sweet scent. #winterjasmine #jasminumpolyanthum #fragrantflowers #tropicalflowers #houseplants #vines #whiteflowers
I finally got this commissioned print by @anne.coates framed. She used photos I took of subjects in my garden and my favorite Cicero quote, then designed this screen print. She has done a perfect work. It will be on the wall of our sunroom. #screenprinting #gardenart #ciceroquotes #cicero #flowerprint #artprint #artprints #gardenandlibrary
It’s only January kids; go back to bed. Hellebores and daffodils in our garden started to come up eventhough we still have a bitterly cold temperature and snow coming up, and at least one and a half month of winter left. However, I’ve seen some Cormorants drying their wings at the reservoir recently…is climate changing that fast now?😩#hellebore #helleborus #hellebores #daffodils #perennials #winterflowers #backyardgarden #coldhardyplants #gardeninwinter #flowersforpollinators #pollinatorfriendly #easytogrowplants #earlyflowersforpollinators
It’s nice to come home in the evening to this beautiful and fragrant ’Lady of the Night’ (Brunfelsia gigantea). It blooms year round as long as it has good light, right temperature, and well fed. The fragrance is much stronger at night than during the day. #ladyofthenightflower #tropicalplants #houseplants #fragrantflowers #whiteflowers #brunfelsiagigantea #brunfelsia
Sunday, it’s a weekly shower time for this ‘Pink Princess’ Philodendron. She usually has speckles of pink here and there but this particular leaf has a perfect split. #pinkprincessphilodendron #philodrendron #houseplants #tropicalplants #easytogrowplants
I walked #unionsquaregreenmarket today and realized that spring will be here soon enough. Plenty of Hellebores showed up at the market. Couldn’t help taking some shots 😁#hellebore #hellebores #winterflowers #shadelovingplants #coldhardyplants #perennials #perennial #easytogrowplants #flowersforpollinators
