Master Gardener

Maple Trees - Emblematic of Canada

Phenology - What's that? Thought you'd never ask.

They'll be back...

Wine, jellies and fresh...

Vegetables the way kids like them.

How sweet it is.

From waxing in the sun to lighting up the shade.

It's surprising how much a properly prepared straw bale place in a sunny location can produce.

"Lemon Tree very pretty..."

Saving the planet - one eco-garden at a time.

Spring has sprung.

Be old fashioned. They're not called "Sweet" peas for no reason,

Begorrah you received a Shamrock Plant for St. Patrick's Day...NOT

Pussy Willows, Cat-Tails, soft winds and roses. Gordon Lightfoot got it right.

Spring ahead. Bloomin' blossoms before their time.

You don't have to get down and dirty.

The Colour Purple (not the movie)

The Purple Tomato (TM Registered)

Every Rose Has Its Thorn.

Do eat but don't "Go Bananas".

Sow your oats.

Root for Ginger. It'll spice up your life.

No pine. No apple.

OK on your dinner, but...

Yes, Mustard still "cuts the mustard".

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.

What can you do?

"I cannot tell a lie..."

Peppering you with facts.

Reflections on past gardening year; inspiration for next?

Bark you can consume.

That Bloomin' Gift

Majestic and much more.

A heads up to a head start. Sow seeds under the snow.

From slipping to blooming.

Don't just dream of summer, search out suitable seeds.

Fall leaves that don't fall.

Spruce up your property.

My true love gave to me...

Beneath the Blanket of Snow.

Not about you, about YEW.

A fad of the fifties.

"We three kings of Orient are..."

Not the hemlock that poisoned Socrates.

Not just for gin.

Season's Greetings.

Enlightening.

You don't need to force yourself to grow these in mid-winter.

When is a cedar not a cedar?
