Great article, I was having serious zone envy last night, driving 20mph through a blizzard, trying to get DH home from work, trying to visualize where exactly the road was...sigh...
Oh, Pixie, EVERYONE is invited! 3G, be one with the road... be one with the road... be one with the road...
We were thinking of going public to raise start-up money, but DH says we would do better to apply for a grant or maybe get a university interested in doing the research? I will keep you posted!
I really enjoyed the article ! I can relate. I think the people in the north can really appreciate spring and the spring flowers more after a long cold winter. ( I just hate when the car gets plowed in like that) :)
I know. And it snowed again after that! Now it's just yucky, gray, extra cold and damp, but not snowy (to keep the plants nice and warm). I would appreciate spring with 6 weeks of winter total, not 6 more weeks. x, Carrie
I laughed at the part where you were surprised we had to water daylilies! We don't have rain here generally from April thru Nov. so rain during the summer is completely foreign to us. We just don't understand 'dormant' as it is should be.
But as you said, home is where your family is so you learn to love the garden and the plants you can grow.
Pssst, I actually get Zone 10 envy, but the kind without the humidity!
I went to college near LA - 1,000 years ago - and couldn't quite figure out shy the campus was green and lovely but off-campus was brown and dry! (Duh...) Today we are getting 'nyah, nyah, it's almost spring...NOT' weather. Tra la la, I don't care, I'm going to Aruba in my mind, LOL. x, C
