I posted tonight, but MT must not love me.
\nYes….I’ve been away longer than usual. I’ve been saving up things to share with you while I’ve been chained to my office desk. Hopefully, I’ll get the time in the next few days to write a bit more.
\nWe are already into November and I’ve barely scratched the surface of my Fall gardening. The Herb Garden is just about ready for winter, but it’s the only garden that has received any attention.
\nIf you have iris, now is the time to add a gentle fertilizer. Go buy a bag a alfalfa pellets, the kind of thing you might feed bunnies. Sprinkle them around your pods of iris, and let them deteriorate over the winter. They’ll feed the iris and you’ll have the most spectacular blooms you’ve ever seen.
\nI need to cut back peonies this weekend, and the plants in the container gardens. The pots need to be emptied and cleaned for storage in the garage over the winter. I want to insulate two roses and a pot of herbs that I’m going to try to store in the garage, too.
\nSaturday, we plan to attend a wedding reception late in the afternoon, and then go on to dinner with the kids, to celebrate Dear Husband’s birthday. We’re a little late with that celebration, but this was the first time we could gather. Sunday, one of my nieces is coming for a visit in the afternoon. So, I should be able to do some gardening during the mornings.
\nSo…while my mind dwells on gardens and celebrations, the filing calls me. I’ll be back soon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
