http://growinginpepperell.blogspot.com/2011/11/419-bulbs.html

I had a small representation of narcissus from the White Flower Farm ( The works. And had been planning on doing it up this year. Hubbs had asked about color aka tulips, so I was determined.

GrowingInPepperell: Mystery Plant
http://growinginpepperell.blogspot.com/2009/06/mystery-plant.html
Growing up, growing plants and growing a family in Pepperell. Wednesday, June 10, 2009. Ok, so I was snookered, I'll admit it, by the garden club member who told me, 'it's pink blooms will sway in the breeze after all the other perennials are done.' All she had to tell me was that it will extend my growing season an itsy bit more into September, and my fingers were on their way to my wallet, but then she said into October. and I said "SOLD! I'd like to know what I bought. I think I got it! Countrybrook F...

Growing up, growing plants and growing a family in Pepperell. Friday, October 31, 2008. In the front right on our property line, and right on the street we have an enormous maple that must be 100 years old if its a day, and from the front it looks fine, but from the back it is completely eaten away with rot, and is littered with huge mushrooms.

http://growinginpepperell.blogspot.com/2012/04/what-419-bulbs-looks-like.html
Growing up, growing plants and growing a family in Pepperell. Sunday, April 22, 2012. What 419 bulbs looks like. Not so impressive, right? Well, the proof is in the pricing I think. Referencing the post describing what I put in ( http:/ growinginpepperell.blogspot.com/2011/11/419-bulbs.html. So I just need more, right? Ha To be fair, they got pretty scorched.

GrowingInPepperell: Earth day - April 21st check in
http://growinginpepperell.blogspot.com/2012/04/earth-day-april-21st-check-in.html
Growing up, growing plants and growing a family in Pepperell. Sunday, April 22, 2012. Earth day - April 21st check in. Despite drought conditions things are greening up quickly in part due to unseasonable warm temps. It seems we're about 2 weeks ahead of normal growth rates. Earlier in the week I received a number of shrubs that I'd ordered in the gloom of winter, and so - Surprise! So the crabapple 'Profusion' is in the back - here's a closer shot. It's darker than I expected, but very pretty with a...

Growing up, growing plants and growing a family in Pepperell. Sunday, January 18, 2009. In hilly Pepperell, we have 2-feet in a few places. To give you a sense of the depth, I took a photo of snowfall outside our living room, where it's about 15". I put the pillow in the frame to give a depth perspective. A few weeks ago, I read in the Boston Globe's 'Ask the handyman' column a suggestion about using. I am pleased to report that I took the first steps toward the basement grow room today. 6 Start annuals ...

Growing up, growing plants and growing a family in Pepperell. Monday, May 18, 2009. Hmmm not so much. Yes, I am your typical garden blogger, one post every 6 months. But the long dryspell is over people! It's spring in Pepperell and that's means garden blogging time. So the seeds. yeah, not so much.
