Sherry, what a sweet little chubby cherub she is.

6 granddaughters? No grandsons at all?

My precious lavender!
Q
Comments (9)
Thanks Mistacottt and nhbabs. My lavender is indeed a multifada, so i could take a chance and leave it outside, tipping it on its side, or hope that it acclimatises to being indoors. It is in a pot because my garden has no soil but gravel instead so i grow most things in pots, unfortunately. Its always been in pots- last autumn i transplanted it from a small one to a larger one (terracotta) that it is in now, so the soil is a year old at most. I highly doubt the problem is being potbound, more rather an issue with humidity and temperature. My house has huge french windows rather than walls so it does get a lot of light even if not always direct sunlight. Its somewhat like a warmed conservatory. The temperature inside is about 22 degrees, maybe 21. But there isnt much difference between night and day in winter. The flowers have all bent over, a bit like cut flowers that you leave in a vase for a few days. The leaves are curling up and soft instead of firm like before. I will feel the soil and water if needed today, wait a few more days and then see if it improves. If it doesnt, i will bring it back out and try to fit it with in my coldframe.... Does that make sense? I am in switzerland and although the winters arent the worst, we get very strong chilling winds that sometimes bring the temps down to -20! I hope he makes it! Thanks again :)

My Precious Winter Survivor...my Mango tree

Thanks you guys! I'm sorry you lost your baby Julie mango fruit Dianne :o( Minderella, I used a roll of Aluminum Window Screening I bought from WM...cut different sizes and sewed them on the sides with a zigzag stitch. I use Yarn and a yarn needle for the "ties". It was very easy to sew. I just hope its enough to deter them from eating them. Hi Silvia...you know I can see a Mango tree a mile away,lol...I sure do see that pretty mango tree in your mini orchard! I bet next year you will some delicious mango from that tree. Here's a picture of one...

Worried about my precious mint plant :(
Q
Comments (2)
Hi! I think that when it was in the compostible pot, it was drying out too fast. You probably shocked it when you cut the roots, in a compostible pot, you don't have to remove the pot, just stick it in the new one, and the peat will just desintegrate. where I live, mint takes a LOT of water. But you are colder so you may not want as much water. Instead of a schedule, it's better to feel the soil, if it's drying, it needs more, but if there is no drainage hole at the bottom of the pot, the roots might rot. Mint spreads, it's what it does best, so continuing to pot in a bigger pot is usually necessary, but you can do other things, one is, mint roots very easily, so when the plant gets crowded, you can cut a branch and stick it in water until it gets roots, then pot that up. In my experience, you can't over water mint, but I live in a climate like Southern Italy, so I don't know about your climate. Never fear, as long as you cut branches and put them in water, you will never lose your dear mint plant. :o)

Beer traps with one in close proximity to every seedling. The bait works but involves chemicals and a bit more expensive. Plus you get to drink the rest of the beer! I give my slugs a nice triple IPA every spring.

Something tells me she gets lots of kisses. She is so cute and all those little fat rolls are perfect. Just the way little ones should be.

Give her a big kiss right in her neck for me.

She'd look good being passed around arm to arm at Canning Camp. I took a picture of my kid in a tamale pot when he was two months old....

Doris,
I am one of two girls and there were five boys in my family. My husband is the only boy with 5 sisters. So, I had 5 brothers, he had 5 sisters. And my kids can only have girls for some reason. (I don't care, I love little girls)

I have 6 grandsons.....and one grand daughter.
My father was one of 4 boys, my mother from 2 males and 2 females....but her father was one of 8 boys and there was only one boy in the and her mother had a sister and a brother.
I have a brother and DH had a sister....but his father was from 6 boy family.....and of those 6 boys there were only 3 boy kids and 10 girls
Not sure what all that proves....but it's interesting! LOL!
