What's going on in your garden (2023)?

[Yorky]

The owner(s) may trouble themselves to send a digger or a dozer to clear up - but I doubt it. However, it will be overgrown again in 12 months.

We've found out more about what's going on next door. Apparently the owners (who we do not know) wish to build a track alongside my wall to give access to the guy next door's house. This implies that he is about to lose the access that he currently has.

More tree fellas; this time on our north side. However, these fellas are PEA (Provincial Electric Authority) contractors and visit quite regularly to trim the trees in proximity to the electric and telephone cables. They were a little more enthusiastic today.

Who did they hire to do the tree work, Leatherface?

(TR will know who that is.)

If I had to guess I'd say Fred Karno!

His crews appear to do a lot of the work in this town.

New potatoes well ahead with growth. Basil and coriander also taking off. Everything is growing well for spring.

At the beginning of the year, my rosemary was dead, and I had two tiny patches of oregano, each about the size of a tennis ball. I planted a new rosemary bush, and my oregano came back on its own. This is a photo of the rosemary plant (center) surrounded by a huge patch of oregano. I have to trim the oregano back with a weed-whacker to keep it from taking over the yard.

Oh, that clump of sticks is a dead shrub I need to remove. It has thorns, so I've been putting it off.

Be3careful how you store those potatoes. I learned from a video last night that potatoes, as they rot, create a deadly gas -- solanine. I did a fact check, and it is true.

I save mesh onion bags from the shop and store them in my walk-in cooling unit...usually, by the end of the spring time they start to grow eyes and I use them for the next season..which we have here..;p
