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 …

A Look Out the Window

On February 6, 2021March 3, 2023 By nanasworldwebIn House and Yard15 Comments

"So, what's out there?" Panda's question put an end to my reverie. I had been so absorbed in looking at the back yard that I'd forgotten all about him. "Well," I responded. "It's looking pretty good out there. I think it might almost be spring." "Oh, does this mean the groundhog did or didn't see …

Consider the Lilies

On April 24, 2020May 10, 2021 By nanasworldwebIn House and Yard9 Comments

"Consider the lilies of the field..." Or, in my case, the succulents of the back yard! The message of these words, as most of you know, is that we should trust God to take care of us, and not stress over the future. I realize that in the day we are living in, that may …

Whimsical Garden Part 5

On May 23, 2018March 3, 2023 By nanasworldwebIn House and Yard

Let me begin by saying... My bottlebrush tree is doing much better since the day I "found" it.In March, I trimmed the bush/tree next to it as far back as I could, so the bottlebrush would have more room to grow.However, we do need a bit of "truth in blogging" before we get too far...I …

Attracting Hummingbirds (or, Plants With a Purpose)

On February 1, 2018March 3, 2023 By nanasworldwebIn House and Yard

Okay, I realize my last post was about plants... but this one is about plants with a purpose! You may remember when Foster was smaller, we went on a mission to attract hummingbirds. The first plan was to put the feeder as close to the window as possible so I could get close up photos …

Sunny the Sunflower

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 …

My Whimsical Garden Part 3

On March 20, 2017March 3, 2023 By nanasworldwebIn House and Yard

Well it's Whimsical Garden time again...although I have to admit I had to look back on my old posts to see if this was Part 2 or Part 3! The weather is getting nicer and with that comes inspiration to work in the yard. To start with, the daffodils turned out pretty well. I planted …

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 …
