Wapito blooming in my small stock tank converted to native pond. This tank is fed from a downspout off my roof. The pond has hosted 2 years of pacific chorus frogs as well, so I'm considering it a success. Skamania County, Washington

My first biochar burn went great. We didn't use a kiln, just a pile that we added to as the wood burned. The biochar will be top dressed around my fruit trees and in the veg beds. #biochar #gardening #PNWgardening 🌱

Happy Spring! This is an egg mass of Pacific Chorus Frogs in my little stock tank that collects water from my roof. And the seldom seen but loudly heard frog. Skamania County, WA, USA🌱 #PNWGardening

I saw my first bloom just a couple days ago. Skamania County Washington.

I'm in Washington State. There was about 5" of snow last week, and it's been below freezing nightly for a few weeks now. Rain yesterday. And surprise - last night I heard the Pacific Tree frog (aka Chorus Frog), Pseudacris regilla, singing at my pond 🌱 #organicgardening, #pnwgardening

This goat weathers the snow just fine. His winter coat is as deep as my fingers are long. #WAWX

Here's some heather blooming in January with some riverbank lupin in the background. SW Washington State.

Love the idea of bloom scrolling today. Here's a rose that I got as a freebie from a local nursery. At the time it was a scraggly couple of twigs that they couldn't sell. When I showed the nursery owner the photo she said it was probably "At Last". 🌱

My first ever yacón harvest. SW Washington State. Pesticide free since the 1980s.

My grandmother's Christmas Cactus blooming for Christmas this year. She's bloomed for Easter, for Memorial Day, and for Thanksgiving in the past. I inherited this plant in the 1980s. Amazing.
