I'm always on my way out the door..

Yours are looking great, Cece!

A bunch of mine are waiting for the weeder person (me).

*Grumble*....spent a lovely afternoon looking at asphalt instead, yuck.

I really dislike waiting for truck repairs, but at least we're safe to travel about again.

I already posted these cuties on the farming forum, but since they will help with bug control in my cottage garden, I'm showing them here.

[frost warning]
The wind today has blown the leaf coverings off of my plants, so I guess they're on their own tonight.

If people were careful, it would be better. Big apartment fire in SE MA in Dartmouth--careless disposal of smoking materials & 35 people are safe, but homeless.

They come running up to me now when I open the coop door! I have to scramble a bit to keep them all inside.

I'm really enjoying these tulipa tarda. I'd wanted some for several years and finally managed to put some in last fall. My plan is to carry on the same color pattern with Tidy Tips later on.

Did I post this here already?

Bergenia bloom. The culmination of a three year wait - from transplants.

The bloom appears to be long-lasting though, so I guess it was worth the wait. I only wish I'd planted more (three years ago

) for a bigger effect. The single bloom stalk rising well above the foliage looks a bit out of place all by itself.
