Welcome to the September 16, 2007 edition of garden fest. Can you believe that autumn is only a few days away? (Unless you’re in Australia, of course.) Soon, it will be time to start raking up all those lovely leaves to make leaf mold for the gardens.

Garden Hints

Kate Burgess presents Old Furniture? New Raised Garden! posted at Gardening Article by Kate, saying, “Turning old wooden furniture into a raised garden. In this case it was an old entertainment unit.”

Great idea, huh? I have a few pieces I could do that with.

savingadvice presents Five Favorite Plants That Are Frugal posted at SavingAdvice.com Blog, saying, “Five plants that will liven up a garden without costing a fortune”

Shirley presents Growing Heucheras From Seed posted at Choosing Voluntary Simplicity, saying, “Growing heucheras from seeds you harvest yourself can be a very interesting project because most of the resulting seedlings will look very different from the parent plants and you never know what you will get. My ordinary green heuchera produces many different colored seedlings in a range of colors from red to orange.”

Misc.

GP presents INNside Innkeeping in Montana: Here’s Mud in your EyeInnside Innkeeping in Montana posted at Fish Creek House – INNside Innkeeping, saying, “Lesson from the greenhouse this morning… never fails to amaze me. As I was perusing the state of the union aka the plants, I couldnt help thinking, when you plant a seed, the first thing that comes up isn’t the perfectly formed sprout. The first thing that comes up is dirt. Same thing with setting intent. Same thing with shifting your thoughts to create a better reality. Same thing with new habits and patterns.”

Alta presents Garden Gnome posted at >Love Country Living.

GrrlScientist presents Dahlia posted at Living the Scientific Life, saying, “A stunning black and white image of a flower. It’s just an image, but wow, what an image it is!”

Annette Berlin presents How To Grow Hydroponic Herbs posted at Frugal Journey, saying, “I’m not much of a gardener. I’m too afraid of snakes and spiders to enjoy playing in the mud. And, the one year I really tried to grow something, my entire yield was three green peppers and a rotten watermelon.

The one exception to my purple thumb is hydroponic herbs. Growing hydroponic herbs is so easy, even I can do it. It’s a no-brainer.”
