Clivia Miniata

 

It was time to move them out of the house.  The 

above plant was a gift from Dan Heinze from 

Terra Nova Nursery in 2003.  As it has grown

we have been blessed with many babies and seeds

which we have grown out.  We have gifted them 

to friends.  Our mom is still growing!!

Here are some of her babies.   

We have also added few new ones grown from seeds.

Brugmansia/Datura/Iochroma

 I know that the original post was done long

ago and have had some folks request that I

update this.  It's just general information for

those that grow them.  I have been growing

them since 1995 and there is more I can add.

I will say this, one needs to find their own

path and experience these lovely ladies of

the night to understand what they are all 

about.  Pointers were few and far between

when I first started out with these.  I do

thank those that helped me along my path.

The key is education and knowledge in

what you grow.  Each garden is different, 

so each gardener is different. 

Where Are Folks' Heads?

 A little after 8 AM tis morning some

guy was at our door with Campaign 

flier he was about to leave at our door.   

Excuse me!  Do not leave that at my 

door!!   Let me save your money as 

I won't vote for her were the words

I stated to him!  Then he tried to talk

about another flier he wanted to leave 

and I told him no!  Then the dog goes 

off and I told him I was a Community 

Activist.  I know all the issues and

do not want his junk.  Beside our 

yard is posted no trespassing so leave!   

No respect for anyone that shows up 

unannounced and at that time in 

the morning.  Nore will we vote for

someone that sends their folks out 

at that time.

Do not stop at our door!!  

New Neighbors!!

 The sign is down on the house to 

the east!!    It was reported that the

house sold for $490,000!!  Now tell

me that is crazy!!  Clark County's

GIS list this at a value of $333,887.00,

let me add lower than our value!!

But the funny thing is the old owners

vehicles are still seen coming and 

going.  No one has moved in??

No wonder folks can't afford a house

here.  Or should some one say they

over paid??

Time for an update.  Sad to say for 

almost a week there has been guys

removing either lead paint or asbestos?

Don't ya just love the little surprises 

that comes with buying older homes?

Hope there was an inspection??

Come Walk In Our Yard.

Someone back east requested photo, so I hope you enjoy!

                                                                                                                                                                                                                          

If you have seen the older photos you will know this area got hit hard from falling
neighbor's tree branches.  It hasn't come back like the other side.  Matter of fact
it is loosing, it used to be the best side of the hosta garden.

Finally got the hydranges to look good after being hit twice by falling limbs.

This year's veggie garden was just planted a couple weeks with the Peas and Beans last weekend.  Still dealing with fir junk falling from the huge trees.

We usually take photos from the roof once a year but this year, I'm not supposed to be up there when no one is here.
