Just Add Water, Part 4

On June 12, 2021March 3, 2023 By nanasworldwebIn House and Yard7 Comments

It has occurred to me since I wrote "Just Add Water", Parts 1, 2, and 3, (which mainly focused on my "garden sphere experiments"), that this title would work just as well for a post about the back yard plants. Yes, I have realized that if you want plants to grow properly, you have to …

I Found a Tree (Again)

On April 28, 2021March 3, 2023 By nanasworldwebIn House and Yard5 Comments

If you've read "I Found a Tree", you'll recognize this picture. It's the bottlebrush tree that has been in my yard since 1992. It's the same tree, you remember, that was overtaken by volunteer bushes, which turned into trees under our very noses. For more info on this, see "A Bush Grows in Fresno". So …

On July 16, 2017May 10, 2021 By nanasworldwebIn House and Yard

In the 1970s the opinion was that you should talk to your plants. It was supposed to make them grow better. However, I don't remember ever reading that you were supposed to name them... Meet Sunny, the latest addition to my whimsical garden! Only $4.99 at Orchard's, which I thought was a good price. Not …

I Found a Tree

On February 3, 2017May 10, 2021 By nanasworldwebIn House and Yard

My English learners and I had a favorite poem called "I Found a Cow." It went like this: "I found a cow! How? I found a hen! When? I found a bear! Where?"...and it went on from there...you get the idea. Well they would all be so pleased to hear that...I found a TREE! First, let's …
