    Glaswegian: Nice looking garden. I would say you have your own piece of paradise right there. Enjoy.

    Thank you all for the kind words.

    Yes that is Colocasia/Alocasia in the ground, it's not hardy so has to be dug up for winter

    So how has everyone been, and how was the 2010 planting season for ya? I was gone most of this year on military duty, and now that am back, I have had to sell that house and my plants with it.

    I am going to be starting all over again in Ottawa

    My hubby had a small rented, organic veggie plot for the first time, so he learned about picking potato bugs. thinning carrots and beets, etc. He thinks that he won't get a plot next summer. He enjoyed the fresh lettuces, beets and tomatoes. However the garden was situated at the opposite end of the city from where we live, and we spent a lot of time driving back and forth to pick, weed, stake, etc. If we really want organic produce, we can buy it fresh at the market every Saturday, much closer to our home.

    I started a lot of native perennials from seed, mostly winter-sown, so am finally getting the last of these planted out in my very crowded garden. We just don't have enough sun (or space) for home-grown veggies, thus the rental plot. I learned much from all my seed starting. One thing is that I shouldn't be so impatient and start so many different kinds of perennials the same season. My entire patio was a "pot ghetto" from spring until now.

    My garden was part of a local tour in mid-September, aimed at showing people about mulching, water-saving, wise choice of plants, pollinator friendly gardens, etc. I hope that my visitors had a good time. I know that I did. I had recently divided some of my daylilies, so gave away those divisions for free, all potted up, of course, and properly labelled.
