Almost time to start some seedlings

by

Spring will be here in a month or so, and soon many of us will be setting up our grow lights and starting to plant seeds in the hopes of successfully growing some seedlings for our gardens.

Many of the tender annuals should be planted in mid- to late February, depending upon what gardening zone you are in, and most other plants can be started in March.

I’ll talk more about planting times in future posts.

In the meantime, just to get those gardening juices flowing, why don’t you watch this time lapse video of some seedlings growing:






Time Lapse: Blooming Rose

by

I was visiting Youtube earlier and I found this lovely time lapse video of a rosebud opening up into a full bloom.

I’m quite lucky that I grow so many roses in my yard. I almost get to see some of my roses open this quickly on a regular basis.

You see, many of my roses close up to some degree at night but open more fully in day light. If I’m outside in my garden in either the early morning or when the sun is about to set I can sometimes catch my roses and a few other types of flowers in the process of opening or closing.

Enjoy
