gardening

I like to post something like this every now and again to remind me how far I have come.
In 2019 my old life ended, nearly literally. In Spring 2020, it began again, much to my surprise.
My little yard very much reflects how my mind works: it is built from broken, discarded things, but is ordered, growing and full of unusual delight.
Pictures: the back yard of the house I moved in to in 2020, back then, and now. Every item, the pots, containers, compost & plants has been scavenged.
#gardening

A sparse but tidy back yard from 2020. A bare flagged surface surrounded by decking balustrade, sits in front of a building. A few plant pots sit on the yard surface.

The same back yard in spring 2024. The entire area is full of plants in containers, focused around a central wooden seat, with a new grey fence down the left side. The area is lush, green and growing.

Still pretty

#monochrome #blackandwhite #gardening #bloomscrolling #flowers #winter #photography

Black and white photograph of dead and dry hydrangea flower heads coming out of the snow, with rudbeckia dead flowers around them. The bright sun makes the smooth snow shines on its surface.

This was between the two snowstorms of the last days. Not much is left of the garden but these were still worth a visit.

Friday promises

My green lemon tree has been my companion all winter, close to my desk and window. It is now full of flowers, bathing in the sun, and I even see tiny green lemons for the first time. It is very heartwarming, especially with snow on the ground when I look outside.

Enjoy your day!

It's spring across the northern hemisphere, the sun is shining, and the magnolia is out in our garden.
Luckily, no-one can put tariffs on any of this...

A Golden Retriever looks out of an open wooden gate framed by an arching rose arbor covered with spring green foliage and buds. Beyond is a very green garden with a kiwi vine on a large steel trellis at the back, and blooming bluebells, ajuga, and forget-me-nots in the middle ground. Roses, daylilies, and irises with buds are in the middle ground.

🍂 Artist: #DavidZinn and #JoeiUrato in City: #Salina Kansas USA 🇺🇸 10/2024 - Title:
🔴 "Nadine and the New Garden(er)."
🟡 "Nadine und der/die neue Gärtener
(in)
#StreetArt #Art #Chalkart #Urbanart #SidewalkChalk #Artist #StencilArt #Anamorphosis #Mouse #Gardening #Collaboration #NewBeginnings #GoodMorning !☕

Streetart. A collaboration of chalk art and paper stencil art. A little mouse (named Nadine) with a bucket of water and a tin can were drawn with chalk on a gray sidewalk. There are weeds growing on the ground that have been integrated into the drawing and it looks like a plant is growing out of the can. Behind it, another artist (Joei Urato) has placed a drawing of a child sitting on the ground as a cardboard stand-up. The child in dungarees and a sun hat holds a small flower in his hand and looks at the growing plant with his mouse.

Did you ever gild #moss? I did! Look behind the scenes of producing my podcast episode about moss and how moss took revenge (I don't know why): https://steadyhq.com/en/naturematchcuts/posts/5d8402be-ad02-4d23-8c3b-4e42daf6a9b0 Of course you can listen to the episode now! And I interviewed a quite seditious tardigrade!

Three sunflowers with blossoms in bright yellow and orange colours bloom on long stems with green leaves. The painting is painted with loose, flowing brushstrokes. The background is a blur of watercolours and ink in shades of green and blue.
The warm yellow petals contrast with the cooler green and blue tones of the background, creating a vibrant and luminous composition.

This beautiful peach quince flower only produces a tiny fruit, but due to its color, it is one of my favorites.
