I didn't fertilize , but hey .. I will now and see if I might get some for Valentine's Day or maybe Easter ? LOL<br />Yes .. I'm going to get to that bit about checking all of my plant tags from last year and see if I can nail what oregano that is !<br />Keep trying different zone hardy varieties for the lavender Kerri .. I didn't NOT think Provence would work but it is one of my favorites because of the fantastic long stalks for the flowers .. perfect for drying !<br />Foliage is pretty too with that green silver look .. and very fragrant as well.<br />Mr. Gray was a surprise, but he is a handsome fellow : )<br />Shooting in "warm" afternoon light is becoming my favorite .. late in the season ?

So sad, but yes, winter must precede spring, so we might as well get it over with!<br />Your herb pots are still so pretty! Love that oregano (formerly known as thyme ;).<br />Afternoon light is glorious indeed.<br />I fed my Christmas Cacti a weak solution of plant food all summer, which they apparently enjoyed, because they're now gracing us with beautiful blooms. Maybe you could try that before you buy a new one....that's if you're willing to wait for blooms :)<br />We had a wonderful Thanksgiving..thank you!Kerrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18362584475435433892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-726816697009103332.post-15186649619288211872009-11-27T10:24:49.582-05:002009-11-27T10:24:49.582-05:00Thanks Lisa ..

I was a bit exhausted last night and DUH ? was the major influence working my body .. haha<br />I really don't know what to expect from this Maypop .. I'm going to make judgement calls next year if it survives .. but it has to throw more than one bloody bloom or it might be out on its roots ? LOL<br />I love taking sky pictures .. they become more prominent during winter since I have the lack of garden plants to photograph ;-)<br /><br />Mary thank you so much ! I love different light contrasts .. and yes, there is something about the "just right" angle of the sun during that time which is perfect : )<br /><br />Cindee OMG ! .. 5 chickens .. now that is a serious problem girl .. I would be a little crazy by then .. I hope it wasn't "her" with the kids in tow .. but I know how you must have felt .. that is terrible. <br />Hey .. how have the sunsets been ? ;-)<br /><br />Carrie girl how are you doing with that rainy Irish weather ? I hope you have had a break in it too and have seen some sun ? ..You need the "light therapy" lights, they are very popular for northern Canadians that really don't get enough good light .. it can make such a difference in how you feel especially during these long depressing winter months !<br /><br />Ms. S .. I will go hunting today in my plant tag box and see if I can find the proper name to this one (but some how I think it was tagged wrong because I kept referring to it as thyme ?

In the second photo s/he looks poised to pounce. I dug out my May pop [it winters over fine here] a couple of years ago because it was chewing on the house, with intent to gorge, possibly swallow whole. Since then I've been pulling seedlings or runners, I'm not sure which. It's a nice plant if you've got the room for it. The first year I had it there wasn't even one bloom.<br />Your sky, moon and bare branches photos are very nice. "Limbs stretching to the sky to get a hug." Very poignant.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
