Back Jardin de Rat  — 1 day ago

Outside the back door there are peas a-sprouting! They’re about 10 inches high now, and beginning to twirl around their supports. I’m a few days away from being able to harvest enough mesclun lettuce for a petite salad or so.

Still waiting…..for heirloom tomato, pole bean and charentais melon seedlings to sprout.

Jardin de Rat  — 1 day ago

In the front garden, the grape popsicle-coloured tulips are blooming and it looks like the pom-pom juniper made it through the excruciating Canadian winter. Today, before the excruciating Victoria Day weekend begins its downpour, I will underplant with wee purple annuals and hang up charming Arts & Crafts inspired hanging baskets. All are welcome to stop by and say hello and offer counter suggestions!

Pompoms Arrive!  — 9 months ago

Today the big topiary juniper arrived home. Tomorrow, it gets planted in the front yard where the impatiens now grow. It has lovely big pompoms! It looks like an eccentric green sculpture!
