Instead of using hummingbird feeders, I just like to plant things that bloom. I was always told they preferred red and yellow, but last year they liked the purple bean plants with showy purple flowers. I do not like the liquid...

I got 8 dahlias from Amazon and planted up seven of them but struggled to find a suitable space for the last one.
There was a spot behind my sage and beneath my apricot tree, both of which give a considerable amount of shade but,...

This afternoon I had a wonderful relaxing day out in my garden. Adam came out with me as he's trying to get a new pond up and running for our 20 odd fish.

One of the things we've harvested at the preschool is sage. It grows like crazy in our garden. One of the other teachers told me it can be soothing for the tummy. I brought a bunch home and brewed up some sage tea. I didn't have...

One of the biggest complaints that my friends have about spring and summer camping and hiking is the amount of insects that swarm you when you hit certain areas. Sure, ticks are something that everyone needs to be concerned with...
