Experimental Garden: Experimental banana trees
http://experimentalgarden-ncbeesnest.blogspot.com/2012/03/experimental-banana-trees.html
Thursday, March 29, 2012. Our banana grove grows each year. We usually cut off all the trees before the first frost. Last year we tried an experiment and left two trees with just the leaves cut off. During the long hard winter ;) ;), one broke off about midway. Now the trees are coming up. The one that broke off has new leaves coming out the top and it is now 3 feet tall. See the tomatoes grown from seeds? Notice the trowel to show how big they are. Ready to go in the ground. Com'on summer, we are ready.

Experimental Garden: March Bloom Report
http://experimentalgarden-ncbeesnest.blogspot.com/2012/03/march-bloom-report.html
Thursday, March 15, 2012. Everyone seems to be enjoying early spring this year. We are no exception in NC. The last of some of the spring bloomers include this daffodil. We have had daffodils blooming since January but they are about finished. This has been the best winter we have ever seen in the Experimental Garden for Camillia. In the past the deer have stripped the leaves and blooms off the bushes. Not this year and we have enjoyed more blooms than ever before. The forsythia is in full bloom now.

Experimental Garden: May 2013
http://experimentalgarden-ncbeesnest.blogspot.com/2013_05_01_archive.html
Saturday, May 18, 2013. This garden tour is for Millie. Thornless Blackberries are covered with blooms, can hardly wait, yum, yum. Several varieties of blueberries are getting ready to produce and this promises to be a good year. A very small purple iris. Banana tree grove has about 14 so far. Big ones are growing from the old trunks and lot of babies. The largest are about eight feet high. The pot grew back from last year and the frog is a begonia. This is one of the wandering iris. Garden on the Edge.

Experimental Garden: June bloom
http://experimentalgarden-ncbeesnest.blogspot.com/2013/06/june-bloom.html
Saturday, June 15, 2013. To say we had some rain in the last week, is an understatement. This is my road after 4". These are not puddles but two places that the stream has flowed over the road. Thank goodness the stream that was overflowing is back in it's banks. This all started with one peppermint crinum plant. Now we can get up to 50 blooms from the expanded plant. Maybe I will add a little lime and see what happens. Below gives you an idea how big the blooms are. Just gets bigger each year.

Experimental Garden: April 2012
http://experimentalgarden-ncbeesnest.blogspot.com/2012/04/april-2012.html
Wednesday, April 25, 2012. Can you identify this plant? How about this one? The one on top was from seeds from darling daughter and the second one was a plant she gave me. It sat in a bucket from summer, through winter and I just put it in the ground and it started blooming. Wild little blue flowers. Help let me in, it is dark out here. Just catching some rays. May 3, 2012 at 6:29 AM. I think your second mystery bloom is Tradescantia. Not too sure about the first one. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).
