About Me
- Karen
- My name is Karen, and I'm a plantaholic. I started this blog to share the journey of my addiction. I think I may have inherited a plantholic gene from my family because I didn't show any interest when I was a child so I didn't learn from my mother or grandmother, although, I remember them always being out in their garden. My mother did can vegetables but all I thought was yuck! My grandmother would grow rhubarb and make rhubarb pie, and my grandfather was a farmer. He retired from farming when I was about 5 years old but the only thing I remember about the farm was riding with him on the tractor. He did love bird watching and showing me the different birds at the feeder. ..... Hmmm maybe it is passed along in the genes.

Everything is looking good Karen. It's amazing how fast things grow, isn't it?
Your Alcea "Roses" looks great - Glad to see things thrieve in the freezing cold winter/ Hot summer midwest! I had to read the Book Gardening in the Hot Midwest to understand the difficult climate conditions, that is so different from here where it never gets to be more than 90F and very rarely below -15F
This is really interesting, Karen, to see how your garden has changed over the last few months. I think this is the time of year we all wait for in the garden, when everything is blooming. Your blooms look great!
That's a great idea. I wish I could remember to take a few photos in sequence like yours. It's very interesting to watch plants progress.
