November Updates
November or not, we don't like to stay inside if we don't have to. It's been mild - we haven't had a frost yet and besides a few good soakings of rain, it is rather refreshing to be out there as long as I'm wearing the right layers. I'm not ready to be holed up indoors for the long dark that is inevitably on its way. Plus, we recently acquired a few plants from my friend Bridget so those naturally had to go in the ground and as is the way with things, one seemingly simple task leads to four others. Now is the time to do it - make changes, that is - so new plants have the whole of winter to settle in and recover in nice, cool weather. Here then is a rather gray and sort of dreary but very real look at what's happening around these parts this past week. Very hard to spot here but there is a new Luma apiculata in the mix to the left of the Hebe 'Karo Golden Esk' on the right side.
