WILLOW GARDEN MUSINGS: November 2012
http://sharon-willowgardenmusings.blogspot.com/2012_11_01_archive.html
This will likely be a rather disorganized series of "musings", which may get better as we move along. The mundane "goings on" sometimes need to be addressed. Friday, November 16, 2012. November is not renowned as the favorite month of the year, but this year we are having quite an enjoyable month so far. It seems we have the usual annual chores that need to be done. The potato pit has had its insulating blanket of leaves added and covered. We have been trying to conjure a name for this rhodie, which we h...

WILLOW GARDEN MUSINGS: July 2012
http://sharon-willowgardenmusings.blogspot.com/2012_07_01_archive.html
This will likely be a rather disorganized series of "musings", which may get better as we move along. The mundane "goings on" sometimes need to be addressed. Monday, July 23, 2012. It would seem that summer is half gone and we have neglected to do much blogging. Rhododendron season has pretty much come and gone, with only a few blooms left on the late blooming azaleas and R. maximum. We were surprised to find a group of trumpet lilies in bloom a day or two ago. They are seedlings Bill planted a few y...

WILLOW GARDEN MUSINGS: April 2015
http://sharon-willowgardenmusings.blogspot.com/2015_04_01_archive.html
This will likely be a rather disorganized series of "musings", which may get better as we move along. The mundane "goings on" sometimes need to be addressed. Saturday, April 11, 2015. A bit of Spring Optimism. Spring has had a hard time reaching us here in Nova Scotia. In spite of having serious winter not start until almost February, we have been deluged with storm after storm with little respite or mild intervals. Everyone in the province is very tired of shovelling and ice chipping. The sunporch off t...

WILLOW GARDEN MUSINGS: March 2014
http://sharon-willowgardenmusings.blogspot.com/2014_03_01_archive.html
This will likely be a rather disorganized series of "musings", which may get better as we move along. The mundane "goings on" sometimes need to be addressed. Saturday, March 29, 2014. Last June we agreed to have a photographer come from Garden's East. To take photos for an article to be written by Nova Scotia author Niki Jabbour. Those photos were taken June 15th, so our rhododendron and azalea season was in full swing. Most images have a fairly good description, as we were asked for captions. It is alwa...

WILLOW GARDEN MUSINGS: June 2012
http://sharon-willowgardenmusings.blogspot.com/2012_06_01_archive.html
This will likely be a rather disorganized series of "musings", which may get better as we move along. The mundane "goings on" sometimes need to be addressed. Sunday, June 10, 2012. I rushed to get my camera and took quite a few shots. My brain didn’t clue in as to the species for awhile, but eventually Cecropia came to mind. Checking on internet images, that notion was reinforced. The species is. It is one of the largest moths in North America. This link has a very nice pictorial of the lifecycle. The pr...

WILLOW GARDEN MUSINGS: May 2012
http://sharon-willowgardenmusings.blogspot.com/2012_05_01_archive.html
This will likely be a rather disorganized series of "musings", which may get better as we move along. The mundane "goings on" sometimes need to be addressed. Friday, May 25, 2012. Blogging has been pretty much neglected as this spring has barrelled along very speedily. We had our usual business getting some plants off to Halifax for the ARHS Member Sale plus the quite large task of hosting our sale here at home on May19-20th. That event went well. The entire weekend cooperated with lovely weather. We cam...

WILLOW GARDEN MUSINGS: Dismembering Dorothy and Other Pursuits
http://sharon-willowgardenmusings.blogspot.com/2014/04/dismembering-dorothy-and-other-pursuits.html
This will likely be a rather disorganized series of "musings", which may get better as we move along. The mundane "goings on" sometimes need to be addressed. Thursday, April 24, 2014. Dismembering Dorothy and Other Pursuits. Lest anyone think our title a bit macabre, we are referring to the radical pruning of our rambler rose 'Dorothy Perkins',. She is a very vigorous rose which blooms profusely towards the end of July. This whole procedure was further complicated by the fact that there are several clema...

WILLOW GARDEN MUSINGS: October 2012
http://sharon-willowgardenmusings.blogspot.com/2012_10_01_archive.html
This will likely be a rather disorganized series of "musings", which may get better as we move along. The mundane "goings on" sometimes need to be addressed. Tuesday, October 16, 2012. It is now about mid-October and we have had very little cool weather to let us know winter is coming. Even the development of fall color seems a bit slow. The days are definitely getting shorter. Perhaps hibernation isn't far off. The B grandis have made a lot of little bulbils this year. This might be due to the treme...
