erica's garden: November 2013
http://ericasgarden.blogspot.com/2013_11_01_archive.html
Three quinces, two years. Japanese quince ( Chaenomeles japonica. Since my own Chaenomeles didn't produce much fruit this year, I picked these up from my sister's garden (thanks SB) because I love their shape and I hope to draw them at some stage. I drew some from my own garden earlier this year (in February. When I was just getting back into this drawing thing, and I really enjoyed their shape. I hope these three will last until the yew is complete (it has to be done by the end of this month! Japanese m...

erica's garden: October 2013
http://ericasgarden.blogspot.com/2013_10_01_archive.html
The sun sets on Donal's Pond. My drawing of the yew tree for the Irish Alphapet has ground to a shuddering halt - abject terror of the 'Real' paper and a not insignificant problem with composition. and so I've distracted myself with a little bit of sketching. Where would we be without displacement work? Morning sun and Scots Pine. Dodgy phone picture of a sketchy Agapanthus seed head. Summer lingers, Autumn comes: water lily and fallen maple leaf in the pool. Have a good week all. Posted by Erica cinerea.

erica's garden: December 2014
http://ericasgarden.blogspot.com/2014_12_01_archive.html
Well the year is about to turn. December Solstice this year is on Sunday, 21 December at 23:03 UTC. My Solstice wreath this year, made from cuttings from the garden,. Including the lovely Hedera helix 'Saggitifolia'. But some of you may remember the 'twenty-one' idea. So, here we go, starting with the walk into my local park. It's a walk I do most mornings with Iz and so you may well spot a small schnauzer in some of these photos. Heading into the park - at the solstices and equinoxes. Maybe a little....

erica's garden: August 2013
http://ericasgarden.blogspot.com/2013_08_01_archive.html
Getting out and about wasn't really on the cards this weekend, and the weekdays were back at work, so this week's dispatch comes straight from the back garden. Probably not a bad thing in itself- the blog is called erica's garden after all- but it feels like a bit of a challenge. Now there's no way of getting 'round it, we're heading into autumn. And although that always heralds a certain level of dread in me as I face the ever shorter days (we're losing four minutes of daylight a day. Joe Pye weed) that...

erica's garden: The eyes have it
http://ericasgarden.blogspot.com/2015/01/the-eyes-have-it.html
The eyes have it. The light lingers longer in the evenings. We've passed the eight hours between sunrise and sunset. The snowdrops are blooming now under the trees. But still, January sometimes feels like the longest month. In the gardening groups on facebook, gardeners at these latitudes have started posting photos from last summer, desperate reminders that colour will return, that there'll be a feeling of abundance in our gardens again. May and June will come around! Away from a dreary garden, the wood...
