Redemption

by JDO | posted in: Flowers and plants | 0

I lay awake worrying for most of last night, listening to the wind crashing around, and the house creaking and groaning – and just to add insult to injury, the music I didn’t get to sing in front of an … Continued

Early

by JDO | posted in: Flowers and plants | 0

I think it’s shameful neglect that has made both my Christmas (or actually, Thanksgiving, if you’re being picky) cacti bloom early this year: when I finally remembered to take a look at them last week, they were so dry and … Continued

Post-Christmas cactus

We had a leisurely breakfast with H this morning, before he headed off for lunch with a friend en route back to the Frozen North. I tried very hard to remember that he’s a functional adult, with a career that … Continued

Succulent

Happily, Storm Barra hasn’t hit the Shire as hard as some other parts of the country, but it was a pretty miserable day. I went to Evesham this afternoon to buy florists’ wire, and as I turned to walk out … Continued

Edging

Yesterday’s flooding subsided overnight, and the dipping temperature had us waking up to a few pockets of ice around the garden. I scuttled out with the macro straight after breakfast in the hope of recording some of them, but most … Continued

Oi! You! Get off my houseleeks! Uuuuuh…. say what again…? I don’t know what it is about this pot of sempervivums, but every bird and squirrel in the vicinity seems to think it can poke around in there for grubs … Continued

Snow

by JDO | posted in: Flowers and plants, My garden, Weather, Worcestershire | 0

Plush

by JDO | posted in: Flowers and plants | 0

One of my favourite things about Schlumbergera flowers is the fact that the stigma looks as though it’s upholstered in plush fabric. You probably wouldn’t want to sit on it though because it’s sticky, so as to be able to … Continued

Naughty bits

It being a number of years (46) since I took A-level Biology, I  was checking on the interwebs to be sure that I understood the reproductive anatomy of this flower correctly, and found one page that was especially factual and … Continued

Houseleek

by JDO | posted in: Flowers and plants, My garden, Worcestershire | 0

Rain stopped play at the AOG today, which may have come as something of a relief to R, because it allowed him to receive a modicum of his wife’s attention on his birthday. The overnight storms having – apparently – … Continued
