Spring Vegetables

A Good Head Start We installed a cold frame in our vegetable garden in order to have some fresh vegetables in winter.  We did get some cold loving vegetables like Chinese Broccoli, Swiss chard, kale, carrots and mustard greens.   Several times the vegetables inside wilted from the cold when we couldn’t get access.  In the middle of winter when snow piled two feet up … Continue reading Spring Vegetables

I walked #unionsquaregreenmarket today and realized that spring will be here soon enough. Plenty of Hellebores showed up at the market.

It’s been snowing since late this morning, our first snow that actually accumulated. More of our avian friends congregate at the feeders and birdbath during snow fall than any other time.

There’re only brown and gray in the garden but the Christmas cactus provides color in the house. They make winter more bearable. #cactus #cacti #christmascactus #houseplants #tropicalplants #easytogrowplants
