This is one of the pods that came out of the gas kiln this week. I am certainly seeing this in an assemblage in front of that vintage, ethnic looking wrench Melanie brought me the other week. I have a blessed week off between Christmas and New Year's. A week that I usually fill with time spent seein ...

The deep pink penta is still, amazingly, in full bloom. The penta’s neighboring prayer plant* has an offspring—a baby prayer plant (incidentally, the Latin word fetus means “offspring”-- not blob of tissue). Surprisingly, the prayer plant bloomed too—it must be happy! The small white flowers turned ...

Despite sounding like an anatomical structure, the term rose hips actually refers to the seed pods of roses. All rose species bear these, but because most rose bushes are trimmed and pruned we rarely see them today. Normally, species of the Rosa canina family will form these small, berry-sized, redd ...

by Mary Jo Shannon Not everyone will agree with me, but I have always believed that home-made gifts are more meaningful than those purchased at the mall or gift cards that leave the selection up to the recipient. Love and patience, time and talent are all required to choose and create just the right ...

For the first time in five years our bush orchid ( Cymbidium caniculatum) has produced lots of pods -- evidence of the successful pollination of the orchid flowers. The reason is due, I believe, to the small native bees I saw busy within individual flowers. Other years I've seen a variety of insects ...

It's been a very hot unbearable summer this year in Kansas City and I let my herb garden just take off on it's own. Then fall hit and I was super busy with a buildup of portraiture clients that had held off as hot and sweaty wasn't their first choice in photo sittings. So finally here in mid Novembe ...

The hyacinth bean vine and the four o’clocks have produced mature seeds for the harvesting. They can be planted next year for a new crop; until then, they, and the remaining ones can be saved for several years in a cool, dry place. Glassine envelopes are often recommended but I’ve noticed that many ...

I love seeing the morning sun shine in; I even made a sitting area by the windows so I could drink it in and naturally, the plants came to join me there. I’m hunting through thrift shops for small ceramic pots for my really small indoor plants since the terra cotta ones dry out much too quickly when ...
