Coming Walk In Our Garden

 

Hope you have enjoyed the fall tour.   This 

is those of you can't visit.  As you can see

this is what keeps me sort of busy.  Soon this

will all disappear.

I took 5 of the dish and started two with 

pollen, 2 with special abutilon seeds and 

1 with Clematis 'Crispa' seeds.

I have taken a few dishes of D. Missouri 

Marble cuttings.  One of stems and 4 of leaf

cuttings.   I have also taken cuttings of 

H. Summer Carnival and the variegated

Rose of Sharon.  

A big Thank you to 'Nathan' whom stopped

by yesterday and for his advice.  I have dumped

the first three pollen dishes due to mold and 

over heat while in the greenhouse.  I'm just

learning and will be setting up the lights in

the house before starting to move plants.

Finished taking plant material and used up the 

last of my containers.  This was so much fun.

Golf Course Carts Cursing the Hood

 This evening I told a group of kids cruising 

the streets  in one purple cart it was illegal 

to drive them on public roadways before 

picking up my bucket and going in to call 311.  

Shortly afterwards their parents show up 

and what was stated was so off base.  

Excuse me, it is out of character of me 

to flip off a 14 year old.  Lie, strike one!

Strike two, it's against the law to drive 

them on a Public Roadway according 

to the Sheriff  deputy we talked to.  

Strike three, do not come to our home 

again and walk up like you own it because 

you walked by the no trespassing signs.

Strike four,  NO Mask when it's mandated.

Strike five, no appointment!

Your kid lied to you!!  'You' do not own

the Neighborhood as you put it because there

are well over 7,000 citizens in Felida and your 

attitude to elderly folks was priceless.

Glad to know you know a Sheriff deputy, 

maybe they can advise you of the law?

There are other ways your kids can have 

fun.  Ya know if they have an accident, 

you are liable as your kids are under age!  

Welcome to the Hood.  How long have 

you lived here??

By the way, we have video cameras and 

our proof I didn't flip them off!

When we ran back the video more

was spotted.   The first trip at 5:16pm

the cart it appeared the one kid was 

teaching the young lady how to drive.  

The male was the son of the folks that 

showed up at our door.  

Again the cart appeared on NW 33 Avenue

at 5:16  before they again appeared 

at 6:46 as I was out deadheading the 

front curb flower bed.   One of the kids

when I told them it was illegal to drive the

cart on a Public roadway got off the back of

the cart and walked away.   Smart kid!!

The driver got out of the cart and was 

seen on his cell phone. 

At 7:10 these folks showed up at our door

unannounced.  Ya know them??

Daturas

 

Datura metel var fastuosa

Sorry the blooms are a little past their prime

as I'm having issues getting out into the 

garden in the morning hours.

These were taken this am.

4 layers!!

This past week I was gifted a D. Box of 

Chocolate when she blooms I'll post her.

Almost there.
