A pretty quick six today. It is Blount County Master Gardener plant sale weekend. There was setup on Friday, labeling, pricing, and arranging plants at the Oneonta, Alabama, Agribusiness Center. Then the sale is today. I think that our own Master Gardeners buy just about as many plants as we sell. These plant sales are …

Spring, in shades of yellow-green and pollen covered, has arrived here in Blount County Alabama. The following six items offer a pretty good sense of what's going on in the garden. 1. I'll make the pollen point with a photo of one of the birdbaths. The rocks are in the bowl because a year or …

Wildflowers and budding shrubs are the headliners of the garden this week. There are a few fading daffodils and the hellebores as well providing some pale color, but this week I focus on the coming rather than the going. Before I begin, I want to remind readers to visit The Propagator, our Six on Saturday …

Color and texture are the threads that hold my six together this Saturday. It's fall so you'd expect that color to be dominated by yellow, orange, and red. But I've got a little purple to add as well. Before I get to the photos, though, I have an aside--fall versus autumn. According to Merriam-Webster, both …

I returned to the lake after being away two weeks and found wet leaves, leaves, and leaves. And there are many more to fall. The featured photo and the one below were taken after I had already cleared the driveway (car smashed wet leaves on concrete are a double, staining mess). Unfortunately, it has not …

six on Saturday, 9 October 2021

It has been two months since I've written a Six on Saturday post, although there have been several Wordless Wednesday photos. My schedule, the weather, and the garden just did not seem conducive to a longer post. In the meantime, I hope readers have been going to the site of The Propagator to view his …

My garden is essentially green these days, except for a few spots of color from some very worn black-eyed Susans and yellow rosin weed flowers, and from my favorite wildflower, excepting those black-eyed Susans--the Carolina lily (Lilium michauxii) pictured in the featured image. I remember that when I first saw this graceful, colorful flower I …
