  1. We call him Lord Grantham because we bought him at #Highclere Castle (where they shot Downton Abbey #downtonabbey) and now he's watching the #crocuses in our #garden #Bloomscrolling #FediGarden #GardensOfMastodon

  2. I love looking out our kitchen window and knowing that we turned what was a frankly useless bit of paved terrasse that the previous owners installed into a thriving little #KitchenGarden of #RaisedBeds

  3. Today I spent a few hours working in the garden, removed the table that rotted and collapsed, installed a bird feeder, did some general cleanup. Spring is coming, some of the flowers I planted in autumn are starting to show new sprouts.

  4. Jan 22:
    More lettuce growth, and I swapped out the 3 non-thriving red romaine plants (roots never touched water inside to wick it up) with 3 buttercrunch, which were ready to go from the seedling starter tray. Temps in tent still around 50F with 50% humidity, while in 20Fs outside.

  5. Today I am fighting with Carduus* plants in my field and look at the size of that boy 


    * I think the best solution to “I don’t know the English names of most common field plants” is to use the Latin names, this way everyone can search for the name in their native language

  6. It’s been a beautiful weekend in the spring garden 🪴 - May is such a vivid month outdoors 💗💚💜.
    A garden full of bees, foxgloves and alliums.

  7. Deer in the night, garden in sight,
    Feast of plants for the deer to bite,
    Crisp dewy lawn, the vandal’s site,
    Deer’s excretion, a horrid blight.

    On frosty ground, I follow back,
    Deer’s fine footprints, perfect tracks,
    Garden’s plants, naught but snacks,
    Deer’s excretion, a solid black.

  8. It is 61 degrees and I am on the porch in a t shirt mentally planning gardens for the spring. I am admittedly very bad at planning gardens because I am too indiscriminate in my love of plants. Dutch garden designer Piet Oudolf had the best advice for home gardeners: “Buy the plants you like, don’t try to be a designer”
    This is my approach… also, knowing my conditions and selecting plants that will do well in these conditions. #gardensofmastodon

  9. Such a beautiful morning to wake up to. Rime frost covering every tree, plant and spider web. The best photos I took in the short time I nipped out cos it was also freezing!
