The flowering stalk..

The flowing stalk is the mother plant. She needs at least 3 babies before she flowers and dies...

How many babies are there in the pot?

Who says you can't grow Cavendish bananas in Rhode Island?

Birthday jaunt to Native Plant Trust's Garden in the Woods (Framingham, MA)

The Bucket Gardens are beginning to Pop with Poppies!

The first Arisaema triphyllum in the Bucket Gardens this year...

Happiest of rare native finds in my garden: Cypripedium parviflorum

Yes, I planted it last year, but I didn't expect it to come back. They are difficult.

If you see one in the wild, they are illegal to cut or dig up.

This week in the Bucket Gardens...

Spain, Portugal, Uruguay, Costa Rica, Colombia, Brazil, Canada, Thailand.

Decisions, decisions...

You say it like it's a bad thing. 🤣

The nurse said he's mostly incoherent and unresponsive, or asleep. He's been in memory care for several months, but we weren't even told that he was in hospice care since somewhere around the 29th or 30th of last month.

When you get a call from a hospice nurse, telling you that she was asked by his wife to call and let you know your father may not survive the week.

I didn't even know he was in hospice care. I'm not even sure what to do right now.

Today at Chateau Bucket (that's Bouquet dahlings)...

This week in the Bucket Gardens (that's Bouquet dahling)...

Sometimes, people really irritate me. Other times, I just shake my head and cover my eyes...

Great to see 'Secret Mall Apartment' tonight at Providence Place Mall, & have Micheal, the mastermind walk into the theater to answer questions (he was banned for life until last Tuesday).

My thought & his words: "How often do you get to watch a documentary at the scene of the crime?"

Signs of spring in the Bucket Gardens (it's pronounced Bouquet dahlings)...
