Purple Haze

16 years ago

Sorry, folks, I couldn't resist dressing up this photo.

For me to get up with the birds is a rarity, but we happened to be in the Milwaukee harbor last Sun. morn, waiting to catch the ferry. The fog was fairly thick and the original picture turned out drab & grey, so I edited just for giggles.

Do you see the lone seagull?

The calm, quiet glassy water and still morning air were indescribable.

Well, it makes for interesting visuals.

Where would art be without someone dressing up what they see?

Julie, I don't see Jimmy Hendricks ?? Purple Haze
I know what waiting for the Ferry boat is all about. Probably the only drawback of living on an island.

Fun photo

Since I grow my vegetables in the containers, I use a potting mix. It's loose and light. I'm transitioning to a DIY potting mix next year so I'll see if my carrots perform better in that. I'm surprised that the carrots don't like loose soil! I thought they need room to stretch out. I heard if you left the carrots in the soil too long, the taste'll turn woody? I'm concerned about that. Oh, I do agree that West Coast is expensive. I prefer their company because they have excellent service and they're close to where I live. I do have the cheap, generic seed brands too, so I'm not above it.

I encountered this problem in 2009. My 'Purple Haze' didn't take too well to being cut back like my other agastache varieties. I switched to 'Black Adder'. Cameron Here is a link that might be useful: 'Purple Haze' grew too tall in cottage garden

Eric, I figured someone would mention him.

We waited 45 min. to board the ferry, but it was worth it. The ride took 2hrs. 15 min. to get to the Michigan side.
