Chickadee Gardens: July 2015
http://www.chickadeegardens.blogspot.com/2015_07_01_archive.html
Thursday, July 30, 2015. The Orange Garden, The Chocolate Garden. Earlier this summer I highlighted the blue border. With a promise of showing more color themes here at Chickadee Gardens. Let's have a look at two more of these tiny borders this week:. The chocolate garden and the orange garden. Both borders - chocolate and orange - are in back and both receive a fair amount of sun although the orange border has a north-facing side and partial shade for some of the day. Here, Geum. Closeup of them all.
Chickadee Gardens: June 2015
http://www.chickadeegardens.blogspot.com/2015_06_01_archive.html
Thursday, June 25, 2015. Alpine Flowers of Mount Hood. Chickadee Gardens here. Been awhile. I think since last winter when I reported here on my adventure to Everest Base Camp. Remember? You can revisit that post here. Many pictures of mountains and me trying to breathe? This time I am once again on a mountain, but it's local talent, i.e., Mount Hood. Haha, never mind. At any rate, I loved this little jewel. Hope you do as well. I want ice cream now, for some reason. Tamara the blogger here in parenthese...
Chickadee Gardens: April 2014
http://www.chickadeegardens.blogspot.com/2014_04_01_archive.html
Thursday, April 24, 2014. A Very Green Post: Spring Hike in Forest Park. Warning: This is a very green post. As in the color. The view from our parking space. That's the Willamette River and a railroad bridge. The false Soloman's seal or Maianthemum racemosum. Was in bloom; what a treat. I have some of this in the shade garden. It's taken a while to establish itself but it shall be nice once it does. Or fringe cup. Deciduous perennial. A whole bank of them, mixed with other lovelies. Again, I'm lagging w...
Chickadee Gardens: May 2015
http://www.chickadeegardens.blogspot.com/2015_05_01_archive.html
Thursday, May 28, 2015. Color Garden: The Blues. Chickadee Gardens is a reflection of me. That may be translated to mean that it's a bit on the neurotic side, i.e., yellow plants go there. And blue plants go here. Today's blue garden, bringing spiky, blue-ish joy. Dark Star' (boo hoo! And countless other goodies. But the beat goes on and here are the survivors. This is early last summer. The lush, lovely Sedum oreganum. Our native mock orange, still going strong. The blue fescue here is gone, replace...
Chickadee Gardens: Lan Su Chinese Garden, Portland
http://www.chickadeegardens.blogspot.com/2015/08/lan-su-chinese-garden-portland.html
Thursday, August 06, 2015. Lan Su Chinese Garden, Portland. Portland has its share of public gardens, but nothing quite like the Lan Su Chinese Garden. The walled garden features over 300 plant species found traditionally in China and some from the Pacific Northwest. Here's a pdf. This dragonfish is one of two on the rooftop to the entrance. Their purpose is to swallow all evil and protect buildings from fire. Water lilies were everywhere in the great pond. The tea house and water lilies. Black bamboo al...

Just a girl with a hammer: August 2014
http://www.justagirlwithahammer.com/2014_08_01_archive.html
My Mighty Life List. Friday, August 15, 2014. Garden bloggers' bloom day, August 2014. I have friends, friends who don't garden, who ask me, "What's new? What have you been up to? The kids from three doors down wander by and I mutter, "Look at how the bumbles keep to the agastache while the honeybees feed on the sedum. And I don't even know what these tiny guys are on the tithonia." They no longer like talking to me because they are teenagers now and also, I'm rambling about bees. Two years ago and it pr...
Just a girl with a hammer: Why I love Yard Rents and craigslist
http://www.justagirlwithahammer.com/2012/04/why-i-love-yardrents-and-craigslist.html
My Mighty Life List. Monday, April 9, 2012. Why I love Yard Rents and craigslist. It was sunny this weekend! I'm so full of love and Vitamin D right now. I had been holding off on reserving a sod cutter for the weekend to see if the weather was actually going to be dry, so I got the 2-4pm delivery spot from Yard Rents. So with just 45 minutes (and a sprinkling of mulch) we went from this:. And I got two responses. By the next afternoon all of these were gone. We went to brunch and came back to an...I bor...

My Mighty Life List. Friday, May 15, 2015. Garden bloggers' bloom day May 2015. Good lord, this is a bloomy month. Everything is blooming right on schedule, so I'll just show new plants or ones that I missed last year (or we'd be here all day). Akebia longerracemosa 'Victor's Secret'. Papaver orientale 'Royal Wedding'. Camassia leichtlinii semiplena, Allium christophii, and Verbascum bombyciferum 'Arctic Summer'. Iris x pacifica ' Alison. Glows from across the yard. Verbascum bombyciferum 'Arctic Summer'.
Animal depredations – Blog of a geek with a garden
https://gardenqueen.wordpress.com/2015/07/30/animal-depredations
Blog of a geek with a garden. My thoughts and opinions and no one else's. Things my dream house/garden should have. July 30, 2015. July 29, 2015. I was reading today in It’s Not Work, It’s Gardening’s. Blog about issues with wildlife. It reminded me of the issues we have with our yard. My husband thinks I should just let it be, but I don’t think he knows that it will strip the tree before any of them are ripe. There are occasional forays by racoons, but they mostly eat the fish out of the pond. I sto...

Blog of a geek with a garden. My thoughts and opinions and no one else's. Things my dream house/garden should have. Things my dream house/garden should have. Enough room for a vegetable garden and a wildlife garden. I was going to say enough room for a pond, but I’m pretty happy with water pots. Enough room for a chicken run. An enclosed patio for privacy and a tortoise. I’d really like to set up a heated area for the tortoise. That or someplace he could get into the house or garage himself.
Stripey tomatoes – Blog of a geek with a garden

Blog of a geek with a garden. My thoughts and opinions and no one else's. Things my dream house/garden should have. August 5, 2015. August 4, 2015. I like to plant vegetables that you can’t get at the grocery store, or plants where the amount I can grow will actually fill our needs. This is an example of one that isn’t available at the market. There have been several on the vine, but this is the first one I’ll actually get to eat. The chickens got all of the others. Leave a Reply Cancel reply.
Projects – Blog of a geek with a garden

Blog of a geek with a garden. My thoughts and opinions and no one else's. Things my dream house/garden should have. July 29, 2015. July 28, 2015. Yesterday I finally papered three cabinets and put the hardware back on one set. I’ll hang them today. I’m anxious to see how my plan turns out. I was very tired of the sponge finish and nothing in our kitchen should be white. When you cook at least twice a day and also make beer, white surfaces get to be pretty tiresome.

We garden on the green side of the Cascades in the Pacific Northwest. Friday, June 12, 2015. Olfactory Senses on Overload. There it is again. Did something die? I turn my head again. All I can smell is the sweet scent of the double Mock Orange,. Philadelphus x virginalis,. Pure, white flowers gently swaying in the breeze. No, something did not die in the garden. It is just the voodoo lilies, Dracunculus Vulgaris. Dracunculus, Zantedeshia, Amophophallus, Colocasia,. After the bloom has been pollinated, th...

Thursday, August 13, 2015. Take Five: Highlighting Five Great Plant Performers. Earlier this spring I tested out a new post topic called "Take Five" wherein I highlight five plants that perform well in my garden (or elsewhere). The purpose is to be able to look them up at a later date or to simply give some ideas for plants that pull their weight. Here is another installment in that series, mostly natives but not exclusively. Type: annual, reseeds. Height: 8 - 10 inches. Spread: 10 - 30 inches. This swee...

Thursday, January 12, 2017. All I have are snow photographs. I want nothing more than to show photos of projects we've been working on or new plants recently purchased. However, none of the sort has happened. Therefore, no photos. What you see is what we've experienced this winter, which is frankly Enough! Thank you very much. Not to sound like a complainer, but we just don't usually get this kind of weather in the Portland area. Or so I thought. Maybe next year's postcard for Christmas. The suet feeders...
