We're Digging It

  • Make your yard hummingbird-friendly
    Early this week I finally spotted hummingbird activity in my yard. Once at the feeder and another time at a planter with fuchsia flowers. Hummingbirds usually show up around the first of May in my yard, but this year they seem to be two weeks late.
  • Being as green as your lawn
    I needed a new lawn mower this year and ended up with a cordless electric self-propelled mower. I decided buy an electric mower after hearing Master Gardener Laurie Proctor talk about how much pollution one mower produces.
  • Butterfly effect
    Michelle Davies captured this image of a Blue Clipper butterfly Tuesday at the Botanical Conservatory in Fort Wayne.
