My original intention was to photograph each colchicum variety at its peak and post on it that same day. Events such as rain, my back trouble, and the fact that I am the IT person for the family computer conspired to throw me off track, not to mention the usual duties of a homeschooling mother of a large family. I am hoping over the next several days to introduce you to some of my pets, but alas, there will be a time lag between when they bloomed and when you hear about them. Now for a few bits of miscellany:
Judy, did you say rain and snow fell on the fires? Does that mean you have had your first frost for this cold season? Sarah of Waiting for Spring apparently has.
Meanwhile, Texas gardener Erica of Garden Spot rejoices that her tomatoes are finally taking off again after the long, hot summer. That’s how different gardening can be in the good ol’ U.S. of A. Right here in Purdyville we think we might get our first frost tonight, though the weatherman predicts it will merely get down to 38 degrees F. I’m feeling pretty wishy washy about it at this point, because it’s raining right now, and that usually keeps the temp from dropping. Tomorrow night it’s almost a certainty, as they’re predicting low 30’s for the whole area. So we shall see . . .
Well, there’s a young lady here that needs her diaper changed awful bad, so I’d better start on the colchicums later.
