PLANTS & RIDICULOUSNESS: May 2016
http://plantsandridiculousness.blogspot.com/2016_05_01_archive.html
A plant geek's shameless journey. Tuesday, May 31, 2016. PATIENCE, PERSISTENCE, and PRAGMATISM. I've learned over the years there are certain necessary qualities a gardener must have in order to be successful. Patience (not at all), persistence (absolutely) and pragmatism (absolutely not). While in some circles 1 out of 3 ain't bad, in this instance my lack of the majority of these essential attributes has caused pain, heartbreak, wasted money, and most importantly wasted time.

Anyway both of these articles (one which I will include directly below, since I can't find it online and the other you can read here. Have been written by the amazing Joseph Tychonievich.

A plant geek's shameless journey. Wednesday, September 30, 2015. A brief 15 minute sampling of wild crabapples growing at the property where I garden. Now that apple picking season is upon us I think it's time someone stepped up to the plate and called out the darlings of autumn as the slutty ho-bags (I checked the urban dictionary, and yes, its hyphenated) they truly are. Jk. Kind of. Sweet Crabapple) with a range. As Malus x intermedia. A genetic conglomeration of at least 6 contributioning species (pr...

A plant geek's shameless journey. Saturday, October 31, 2015. Don't let the pretty Sugar Maples fool you. As any rational kid would conclude, my family would be the first to get munched on in the inevitable zombie apocalypse. I used to lie awake at night planning the best escape route should a hungry horde of 'em finally burst through the door. the rest of my family was on their own (that's what you get for sticking me in the bedroom next to the basement), anyway I digress. The "zombie" (and no, I'm not ...

A plant geek's shameless journey. Sunday, January 31, 2016. NEW YEARS RESOLUTIONS. AND OTHER, NOT ENTIRELY STUPID THINGS. I often have to remind myself that I need to fight the urge to go negative. Limiting the plant bullshit (aka meaningless terms that have zero value when not used contextually) and 2.). Stop prescribing over-simplistic binaries and outdated ideologies to every situation regardless of (here it comes again). context. LIMITING THE PLANT BULLSHIT. People like to, uuuum?

Wednesday, July 16, 2014. Bloom Day - July 2014. Well, I'm a few days late.but at least it's still July! Happy Bloom Day, everyone! One of my new favorite flowers for this year (well, new to me) is Scabiosa ochroleuca. It's no surprise that I love it, considering how much I adore the similar Knautia macedonica.but this one seems a bit more upright and rigid.whereas the Knautia does tend to splay about after a while. Time will tell if this will behave the same way.we'll see. Just kidding.I'll never tu...

Thursday, January 30, 2014. This is why gardeners are never bored. For todays post.let's take a trip into the not-so-distant past.last September, to be precise. When we first moved to our house in SE Portland, I started digging up the lawn about a month after we moved in. One of our neighbors noticed, and one day, showed up on our front steps with a plant in his hands.a gift! In any case, this spring, as I posted previously. And I finally admitted to myself what I've known all the while. The Willow h...

Thursday, October 31, 2013. Labels: portland garden halloween autumn fall cat grasses. Tuesday, October 22, 2013. A Visit to the Portland Japanese Garden. As luck would have it, Sunday was just as (if not more) foggy.so Norm and I left the house at the horrifically early time of 9:30.a time that, on weekends, is generally reserved for coffee, pajamas and episodes of Parks and Rec on Netflix. Never before had the backdrop of conifers seemed so perfect.as they towered above, disappearing into the mist.

Tuesday, April 23, 2013. A Springtime Visit to Joy Creek! You may remember that the week before last week, I went nursery hopping with a group of fellow garden geeks. That first post focused mainly on some of the cool plants from Xera Plants, this post will cover the second leg of our trip, to the always-wonderful Joy Creek. It's no secret that Joy Creek is pretty much my favorite nursery in the Portland area, so I'm thrilled at any excuse to visit. What great foliage contrasts.who doesn't want a sta...

Friday, May 15, 2015. Garden Bloggers Bloom Day - May 2015. Here we are, almost unbelievably in the Merry Month of May.not even just starting.the middle of the month! Another legacy Iris from the previous owner, I really love the delicate creamy-yellow blooms. And yet another Iris we got with the house.which bloomed for the first time a few years ago, to my surprise.a delicious, deep, velvety purple! I also have quite a few Iris I've purchased from Schreiner's over the years.but, admittedly, I've qui...

Thursday, November 28, 2013. I hope you all have a great Thanksgiving. As I sip my coffee this morning, I can't wait until the house is filled with the aromas of cooking turkey, stuffing and cranberry sauce. Have a great one, everyone! Scott, Norm, Gordon, Boots and Punky Cat (he's the one above). Labels: garden portland oregon autumn fall thanksgiving cat season holiday. Tuesday, November 26, 2013. I bought a cheap pair of plastic Adirondack chairs from a local big box store, to test out the area. The c...

Friday, April 18, 2014. Bloom Day April 2014! Hello everyone out there! Without further ado.on with the show! April in my garden is Tulip season. I'm not a collector or connoisseur by any means.I just buy a bag of whatever looks good at the time. My favorite Tulip purchase was a few years ago when I found a mix of pinks/purples/whites called Plum Pudding or something similarly silly.they are great.a perfect blend of colors that makes me look super chic! Here they are again.just love them! The Geranium ma...

Wednesday, September 10, 2014. For those of us who are OVER summer this year, we are just counting the days until cooler weather (and rain) return. To help kick-start my favorite season, luckily, there are a few wonderful plant sales that I simply HAVE to alert you all to. The first up, this weekend (Sept. 13), is the Salem Hardy Plant Society's annual Fall Plant Sale. It's a short drive out to the Polk County Fairgrounds in Rickreall, OR. Heather.

PLANTS & RIDICULOUSNESS
A plant geek's shameless journey. Wednesday, November 30, 2016. THE GARDEN(S) THAT ATE ME. We all have moments when we feel like the darker parts of our subconscious seep out to infiltrate our reality, even if just for a moment. It might happen a bit more often than I'd like, but I normally just brush it off and blame it on my over-active imagination and some combination of stress, exhaustion, and coincidence. but this past weekend was a bit exceptional. Poverty Rush or Path Rush. Butterfly Gardens to Go.
