Gardening events, plants sales and swap?
Comments (15)Here's a "don't miss" event in Hamilton OH - just north of Cincinnati. Great plants for sale and this private property landscape is well worth the trip regardless Joan Day's Backyard Treasures Annual Plant Sale 6215 Cavalcade Drive Hamilton, OH 45011 Phone 513-868-3512 Friday 26 May 10-5 Saturday 27 May 10-8 Sunday 28 May 10-6 Lots of collector type plants, troughs, hypertufa planters, new sun and shade perennials, and visiting her small, but awesome landscape makes this a definite "Don't Miss" event. I took this info from a card she mails out to previous customers. Use a map program such as MapQuest, Google Maps, or Windows Live Local to get directions. Monday 29 May 10-6 PS- it's cash or checks only...See MoreRose Garden Party, Plant Sales, Tours, Free Events & more...
Comments (3)HIlda: I was very interested in the article on Fertilizer: Organic vs. Inorganic. He says: "Organic fertilizers are not immediately available to plants. Before the plants can use them, they must be broken down by soil microorganisms into simpler, inorganic molecules and ions." This is not a big deal if the soil in your garden is healthy with an active Soil Food Web, but I wonder about my houseplants. I doubt that the soil in the pots has much of a balanced ecosystem, particularly after a long winter of dry air and low light. I'm thinking that it's OK to pot up or topdress with a potting soil containing organic fertilizer but I should supplement with an inorganic fertilizer. All those potting soils called 'natural' and 'organic' may not be best for indoor plants. Claire, just reconsidering...See MoreWho's planning to attend the PSA sales?
Comments (29)Barbra, if you get a chance to forward Barbara's list, I'd appreciate it. I will definitely be going, though I have no particular reason other than getting together with other plumeria nuts :-) Mike, if only your trip was ten days later! The July sale is the 18th, I think. Let me know if you need me to track down something for you at the June sale. Emily, I've seen people grow huge ones with a wick dropped out of a regular pot and into a reservoir of water, but my industriousness stops with plumerias, it seems, LOL! If you change your mind about June, let me know. Looks like I'll be doing the pre-dawn solo drive again, and returning in the afternoon....See Moreattendance at sporting events: the Ex and the Fiancee
Comments (26)Ann ~ it's so nice to read your rational posts, and I would love to have you as the BM on the flip side to my extended family. The simple point you made months ago, to the extent of why wouldn't BD be happy to have another caring and supportive person in his kids' lives, made me smile. It seems, and I generalize I know, that too many bio-parents let their insecurities force them into hating step parents. Those feelings then put their children in the middle of an affection battle that ends up harming those children everyone says are trying to protect. Ironic, huh? I think only one poster really touched on this, and it's one point we struggle with. What are we teaching our children about dealing with conflict if everything has to be broken into "mom" time, "dad" time, think about "my" feelings, etc. Aren't we adults? What about their first job with a co-worker who makes them feel insecure, takes some of their spotlight on a big project and makes it uncomfortable to come to work? Should they alternate days at the job with the co-worker so they feel more secure? Grow up! Aren't the kids' time and feelings more important then ours now? Isn't that what being a parent is all about, or am I totally off base? Okay - this obviously struck a nerve and I apologize for the rant. Ann - I wish you the best, and hope things continue on this current path. You all deserve it....See MoreMtnRdRedux
