The Blogger's Garden

I'm stumped by this tall tale of pine trees.

About three years ago our neighbor mentioned that he wanted to take out the tall pine trees beside our house and also to replace the (then) nearly new fence. He asked us to contribute towards the cause, as the trees are on the property line and the fence, once moved, would be also. We declined, as we had just moved in and were still paying on both houses (and therefore were extremely broke).

A gardener has to clear off the roof deck in preparation for a move.

I’m seeding and planting the remaining larger containers and ceramic pots to empty out the smaller starter pots which will be bundled together for sale tomorrow. There will be lettuce, celery, dill, domesticated rose bushes, thyme, oregano, sage, spinach, swiss chard, leeks, red onions, flowering bulbs, wild rose bush, numerous species of lilies, peppermint, pansies, rosemary, strawberries, apple tree, concord grape vine, cedar trees and more.

Discovering a Japanese garden in Portland, Oregon.

After an early rise of about 10:30am I headed out for a walk around Washington Park and the Japanese Gardens with Ian. It was a beautiful day; the sun was shining and it was hot. It was around 75degrees in Portland. Again, just what I needed after all that snow.
