Seed starting

Posted: February 1st, 2004 by Lisa

I think this is the official start to the 2004 Gardening Season. The only way to indulge my gardening obsession while living in Zone 4 is to start my plants from seed, under lights. I started four flats of pansies today. Well, to be perfectly accurate, three of pansies, one of violas. After much

Happy Memorial Day

Posted: May 28th, 2001 by Lisa

Rainy, cloudy, foggy, cool. Hardly feels like Memorial Day at all. This is the start of summer? Frank wanted to put out the summer flag, but I’d rather wait until it really warms up. Valerie is home from school, and she and Marmalade spent much time outside, chasing chipmunks. Didn’t catch any, luckily! The fishies,
