Getting stuff done
What a productive weekend we had! It was amazing. I need to get back to work so I can get some rest. Friday my mom and I took our annual pilgrimage out to Sheldon to the Sheyenne Country Greenhouse–I’m not … Continue reading
Iris and Scilla
One more flower is adding to the beauty in the front garden; it’s only been a week or so since the first bloom but more are coming almost every day. This is another of the gorgeous, tiny Iris reticulata–this one … Continue reading

Amaryllis update
I just had to share a photo of the Amaryllis on my desk–I can’t believe how much it’s grown in the past two weeks since I potted it up! (I took this photo with my phone, so my apologies for … Continue reading
Amaryllis
While shopping a few weeks ago, I noticed some Amaryllis bulbs in some nice-looking pots for about $15. I thought that was a bit pricey, since I already had an empty pot at work that I thought would be perfect … Continue reading
Placed and planted!
I actually got it done after work last night, in spite of the sprinkling rain. . . I found a spot for my new (old) copper boiler, Trevor filled it with potting soil for me (I still can’t lift much), … Continue reading
