"What?" you say..."A sad story about gourds? That can't be possible. Nothing about gourds could be sad. You simply cannot tell a sad story about gourds." So, if you truly believe this, I'm here to prove you wrong. I know this sad story exists, because I've lived it. It has taken me a while to be able to tell it, but this is my story. I am a wannabe birdhouse gourd grower. Ever since I'd seen those sweet birdhouse gourds highlighted on two of my favorite blogs, Children in the Corn and Sunny Side Up, I'd been anxious to grow them myself and turn them into something lovely for the birds. With great anticipation last spring, I planted three birdhouse gourd plants. They were, without question, the healthiest, most thriving thing in my garden! I'd never seen a vine take over the way these things did. They grew bigger, stronger and hardier than anything else, growing beyond the trellis I had staked them to, twining into my garden fencing...: and up into my apple tree: They competed with my green and lemon cucumbers for space: and sunshine: At the height of the season, I had approximately 35 gourds growing, developing, and talking to me as I walked by. Visitors to the farm would question, and occasionally joke, asking me what I was could possibly do with ALL those decorative gourds. "Make birdhouses", I'd say quite simply. Of course, the bigger my gourds got, the more excited I became. Querying on "birdhouse gourd", I found the most delightful things people had done with theirs. There was the "simple pear look" that I wanted to try: And the "disguised as a sunflower" birdhouse was quite clever: For those birds in my garden able to read, here's a great way to welcome them: And if I were of Dutch heritage, of course, I could totally work that into my decorating theme: But - and here comes the sad part - I learned something about gourd vines. They, apparently, don't like to be trimmed or cut back. When the vines in my garden grew too heavy for my fencing and up too far into the trees surrounding my garden, I cut them back. The gourds still developing on the remaining vines shriveled and wilted. At the end of the growing season, this is what I wound up with: Yes, that's right, one, single lovely gourd and two ridiculous mini versions. "Ok," I thought. "So I only will get one gourd this year. That's ok. It will make a funny story." Then the December ice and snow hit. For some crazy reason, I had left the gourds outside under our covered porch, thinking this was a good place to dry them. Had it remained dry, they probably would have been ok. But the moisture was too much for them and by the time I realized what I had done, it was too late. I brought the big guy in and tried to apply first aid. Sadly, the rot quickly set in: It started to sag and collapse practically before my eyes. So much for my dreams of creative birdhouse gourd decoration. 2008 Birdhouse Gourd Tally: 0 Now, isn't that sad? Yet, despite the tears, an optimist I remain and I will try to grow them again this year. What I'd really like to make is this: It's a birdhouse gourd TEE PEE! I think this looks like fun. It's very similar to the bean tee pee that Sarah and her kiddles made last season over at It Blows Here. Wish me luck.

Very comfortable and durable trousers made in dense, durable wool. These trousers were common among the Norse before and throughout the Viking Age. This is evident on picture stones, contemporary art and archaeological finds (such as in Hedeby and Birka). Wear them preferably with leg wraps. Based on historical sources Material: 100% felted tabby weave wool (350 gsm) Color: Brown The trousers come with a drawstring at the waist. Neither leg wraps nor shoes included. "A beloved child has many names" is a Swedish proverb that fits quite well to these trousers. Known as "baggy pants", "pösbyxor" - or even as "rus trousers", even though they existed in Scandinavia long before the Rus. We simply refer to them as "high breeches" (Old Norse: hábrók) which is the name used for them in the Icelandic saga Hauk Hábrók's Tale."

Aided by modern-day quality controls and meticulous sorting before shredding and weaving, it saves on the energy and water needed to produce non-recycled wool.

Posted on June 5, 2018 We've had the more popular and famous Earth Day (April 22) and lots of other environment-oriented holidays (such as Greenpeace Day and World Soil Day and Clean Up the World Weekend). Today is yet another - this one promoted by the United Nations. What environmental issue seems most important to you? What issues do you work on? Remember the advice that we should "Think Globally, Act Locally." Climate change is a HUGELY important issue, because it affects everyone in the whole world - and other animals and oceans and forests and all the other sorts of environments. So...we should all be aware of this global issue. But such a huge problem can seem overwhelming. The "act locally" part of the advice is important. If each of us tries our best to reduce our own carbon footprint, and we all support local businesses that consider climate change in their technologies and practices, and we elect local governments that are dedicated to reducing global warming...then all of that local change adds up to a big effort in the right direction. Other large-scale problems include air and water pollution and overpopulation. Here are some ideas for acting locally - in your own home and life. Look for a local issue concerning preservation of open spaces and/or wildlife, such as saving a wildlife corridor or a bit of wilderness near your city or town. Is the national or state park nearest you struggling with preserving its land against drilling or mining? Are tourists overcrowding the park? Can new policies help preserve the geological features or living things that the park was created to protect? Here is an article to help you think about problems facing our national parks. Are there local farmers who are trying to grow food in ways that are healthier to people and to the larger environment? If so, can you support them with your shopping dollars - and can you raise awareness of their efforts so that others can do the same? Here is a resource to help you find such farmers. Also on this date: Queen's birthday in Niue President's Day in Equatorial Guinea Liberation Day in Seychelles Hot Air Balloon Day Apple II Day Constitution Day in Denmark Birthday of the inventor of the hologram, Dennis Gabor Festival of Popular Delusions Plan ahead: Check out my Pinterest boards for: June holidays June birthdays Historical anniversaries in June And here are my Pinterest boards for: July holidays July birthdays Historical anniversaries in July

Here is a list of plants that work well in small containers there is many more I can't fit them all on here. Remember almost any flower grows excellent in Containers Try your favorites or try this list Chives are grassy, clump-forming perennials with hollow leaves. Essentially tiny onions, chives are grown for their leaves and blooms rather than their bulbs. Their fragrant pink-purple spring flowers are also edible. Plant them in well-drained potting soil that's rich with organic matter. They can tolerate light shade but do best in full sun. Chives grow well in container gardens. Cilantro, also known as coriander, can be used for its tangy leaves or its dried, ground seeds. Plant this annual herb in well-drained soil. Cilantro grows best in sun, although it tolerates some shade. Because it has a long taproot, place it in a container garden that is at least 12 inches deep. Tarragon is a classic French herb used to season fish and many other foods. Its name is derived from the French word for little dragon, referring to the herb's bold flavor. Plant it in full sun and well-drained potting mix. It tolerates drought well and should not be over watered Tarragon grows in partial shade but does best in full sun. Lavender is a bushy perennial shrub that does best in full sun and well-drained potting mix. Keep it on the dry side and avoid fertilizer. does excellent in small gardens and small containers Lemon balm, an old-fashioned favorite that spreads freely and self-sows readily, is perfect for container gardens so it doesn't take over the yard. Plant in partial shade or full sun and in moist, rich, well-drained potting mix. Lemon verbena is a tropical shrub that's commonly grown as an annual in container gardens. Plant nursery-grown plants in pots filled with well-drained potting mix. Avoid fertilizer; lemon verbena grows best with few nutrients. It prefers full sun. Marjoram, an oregano relative, has a sweeter, milder flavor and aroma than its cousin. Grow it in full sun and well-drained potting mix., gardeners in colder areas can grow it in container gardens indoors over winter. Mint is such a vigorous plant that it will become invasive unless it is confined in a pot. Grow it in full sun or partial shade. Mint can grow in many soil types and degrees of sunlight, but it produces the best leaves in rich soil. It's a perennial, but its hardiness varies by variety, so check which type you are growing. Oregano is an essential ingredient in Mediterranean cuisines. The plant is a shrubby perennial that does best in full sun and well-drained potting mix. The more sun oregano receives, the more pungent the flavor of the leaves. Rosemary, a Mediterranean evergreen shrub, likes hot, dry, sunny spots. Quick-draining soil is the key to good growth. It's drought-tolerant. Keep the soil moist but never wet when grown indoors. Sage is a favorite for seasoning poultry. Best grown in full sun and moist, well-drained potting mix, sage is perfect for adding structure to container gardens. Thyme ( Thymus ) comes in many varieties, but all grow best in full sun and well-drained soil. Thyme does not tolerate wet soil, so avoid over-watering. Wild leek (Allium ampeloprasum ) A native wild relative of the familiar garden vegetable. Wild leek has globe-like heads on stems that can grow to a meter tall. Its leaves are just like the common garden leek, although the stem is not quite so fat. All parts have a strong onion scent Blue-eyed-grass Sisyrinchium angustifolium Small blue flowers with yellow centers 2-4 in Open only in full sun. Leaf-like bracts below flowers, linear, iris-like basal leaves. Flattened stem. Curved, drooping fruiting stems. Hairless, erect, grows from rhizomes. Bells of Ireland flowers This cool-weather annual is grown for its showy, cup-shaped papery green calyxes more than for its tiny, fragrant white flowers. Plants reach 2-3' and bloom in late summer. Excellent cut or dried flowers. Honeysuckle Lonicera periclymenum The fragrant Honeysuckle can be found on many lanesides, hedges and roadside banks. Honeysuckle is one of the most beautiful of all wildflowers for it scent and ability to grow in difficult places. Honeysuckles are arching shrubs or twining vines in the family Caprifoliaceae, native to the Northern Hemisphere. There are about 180 species of honeysuckle.. The Honeysuckle have sweetly-scented, bell-shaped flowers that produce a sweet, edible nectar which attracks Hummingbirds. Breaking of the Honeysuckle's stem will release a powerful sweet odor. Spring Gentian Gentiana verna Spring Gentian (Ceadharlach Bealtaine) is the wildflower for which the Burren in County Clare is famed. Although there are many startlingly attractive flowers growing in this wonderful limestone area of western Ireland, the Spring Gentian is the plant which has become best known of all by those seeking to see the Burren's great variety of flowers. Its pure, bright blue solitary flowers are extremely beautiful. As each of the five petal tubes unfurl, they spread to reveal a little white throat. Each flower has small fringed lobes or scales between its petals. The flowers are borne on upright stems, the leaves being bright green, oval, mostly in a basal rosette. Thistle The national flower of Scotland is the thistle; it has been an emblem of the country for more than 700 years. According to ancient legend, the thistle's prickly petals saved the Scots from brutal attack during an invasion by the Norse. Today, traditional Scottish families wear a thistle insignia Thistle is the common name of a group of flowering plants characterised by leaves with sharp prickles on the margins, mostly in the family Asteraceae. Prickles often occur all over the plant – on surfaces such as those of the stem and flat parts of leaves. These are an adaptation that protects the plant against herbivorous animals, discouraging them from feeding on the plant. Typically, an involucre with a clasping shape of a cup or urn subtends each of a thistle's flowerheads Crocus is a genus of flowering plants in the iris family comprising 90 species of perennials growing from cormses The early-blooming and long-lived flower of spring The bulbs (properly, corms) multiply amazingly and can be planted in full sun to partial shade where a dash of early color is wanted. Crocuses naturalize beautifully in lawns. There are two types of spring Crocus: the species and the hybrids, which are generally listed as selections of C. vernus. The former are notable for their unusual coloration, the latter for their large flowers. Species Crocus generally bloom earlier than the hybrids, so by using both kinds, you prolong the season. Daffodils Loved in Scotland and Wales alike The daffodil is the national flower of Wales, and is worn on St David's Day each 1 March. (In Welsh, the daffodil is known as "Peter's Leek",) Sunny, yellow daffodils are a wonderful sign that spring has arrived! Plant the bulbs in the fall and they will bloom in late winter or early spring. Daffodils are hardy and easy perennials to grow Their attractive flowers usually bear showy yellow or white flowers with six petals and a trumpet-shape central corona. Leafless stems bear between 1 and 20 flowers; sometimes the flowers need to be staked so that they don't weigh down the stems. Daffodils are suitable for planting between shrubs or in a border, or for forcing blooms indoors. They also look wonderful in a woodland garden and in large groves. You'll find that many gardeners plant the bulbs not just by the dozens but by the hundreds! Their flowers are excellent for cutting. Hens-and-chicks (Sempervivum spp.). The naturally variegated colors and tightly packed texture add plenty of visual interest to this single-specimen planting. they do excellent in containers Echeveria spp. enjoy the flowers that cluster on the top of stalks sprouting from between the thick, rounded blue-green leaves. Echeveria foliage comes in a variety of shapes and colors Blue-green echeveria (Echeveria spp.) combines with white-striped zebra haworthia (Haworthia fasciata) and fuzzy panda plant (Kalanchoe tomentosa) with brown-tipped leaves. A separate container with burro's tail (Sedum morganianum) adds color and textural contrast as it drapes over the edge of the next step. Mass a single species of succulent for maximum impact. At left, a golden-hued Sedum nussbaumerianum provides a colorful counterpoint to a gray planter. Show off three foliage champs in clay pots: Dyckia marnier lapostolle in the pot at left in the photo, and the ubiquitous Echeveria spp. in the pots at center and right. Note that leaf tips of the slow-growing, spiny-edged Dyckia can shrivel in excessive heat. Snake plant (Sansevieria trifasciata) Also known as mother-in-law’s tongue, this plant is one of the best for filtering out formaldehyde, which is common in cleaning products, toilet paper, tissues and personal care products. Put one in your bathroom — it’ll thrive with low light and steamy humid conditions while helping filter out air pollutants. This succulent can take a beating. I have one and it is nearly impossible to kill it I forgot to water it for 2 years and dead-looking snake plants coming back to life upon watering. Long, pointed leaves grow with patterned markings reminiscent of a snake. You can leave this plant in a pot for many years, allowing the rhizomes to multiply into a thick clump. Allow the soil to dry out slightly between waterings. Overwatering causes leaf and crown rot. It tolerates low light but performs best with medium or high light. It doesn't need fertilizer, but if you insist you can apply 10-10-10 once a year. Snake plant tolerates neglect but thrives on attention. Prune out any damaged leaves so the overall plant looks better. for a Beginner gardener or ones who lack a green thumb this is a PERFECT plant. The Golden Barrel Cactus, Echinocactus grusonii is also sometimes referred to as Mother-in-Law's Cushion. This cactus is known for its barrel-like shape. It also has gold spines and gold-colored flowers (as its name implies). this cactus is perfect for beginning cowboy gardeners. This is because Golden Barrel Cactus plants require minimal care and only have a few basic needs. Growing up to four feet high and three feet across, the Golden Barrel adds spectacular color to the garden even when it’s not in flower. “They make an excellent contrast with agave Purple Prickly Pear, Opuntia vialesia Enormously popular in desert gardens and prized for its color, Purple Prickly Pear is commonly on the list of easy-care favorites. The pads turn purple in the winter, and then in the spring, they’ll put out bright yellow flowers. In the summer, the pads will be bluish green. Although if it’s not healthy it will be purple even during the summer. The downside to Purple Prickly Pear is that it can be prone to insects, but a good hosing down every so often will keep pests away. The odd thing is that the pests are encouraged for some plants as a source of red dye. It’s a cochineal insect, which is a white fuzzy relative of the mealy bug. If you squish it, a deep red food coloring will come out. British redcoat uniforms were made with Prickly Pear insects called Cochineal Beetles As weird as it may sound, cochineal extract -- is a food dye made from the dried bodies of the cochineal beetle,used in clothing and food which is indigenous to Arizona, Mexico and South America. In fact, it's also widely used in yogurts, fruit-flavored drinks, candies,lipsticks and some varieties of Pop-Tarts YUMMY Remember that next time your kid says I want Pop Tarts Chin catcus sometimes called ruby ball cactus or moon cactus (Gymnocalycium cultivars ) you often see this cactus in garden shops is actually two cacti in one. A pure red cactus seedling lacks the ability to produce chlorophyll and will die unless it is grafted onto a green one.The green stalk is typically a Hylocereus species feeds its mutant mate sugar molecules produced from water and carbon dioxide. Once established, the two parts grow together so you can't even see the seam they grow excellent in pots and last many years and require minimal care Peanut Cactus Echinopsis chamaecereus Just like the Gymnocalycium above, this Echinopsis cultivar is another plant that lacks chlorophyll, which makes it yellow and unable to survive on its own. The green stalk below is also typically a Hylocereus species. It is a mountain species that likes it sunny and cool especially during the summer. It needs a cool but not freezing winter to set buds for flowers in the spring. Let the plants go dry between watering and never let them sit in standing water. How to Grow moss on a Statue like this one you can do this on Rocks and Stones and small statues anything you want to Create your own Magical Fairy Garden to make it feel Ancient and mysterious Things You'll Need 2 cups water 2 cups buttermilk 2 cups moss Measuring cup Blender Wooden spoon Paint brush, 4 inch Sphagnum Moss or Moss found on Rocks / Logs etc Instructions 1.
