Wintertime can slow work in the garden to a halt. Cool and rainy weather is not conducive to being outside and typically slows the growth of everything except the fescue or rye you have planted in your lawn.
These terms are important factors for choosing the right tree for the intended space, planting and training the tree, and managing the overall tree size and shape.
Winter is the perfect season to enjoy all the warmth and comfort of our favorite soups. Included in this issue are three soups that you can cozy up to. The Egg Roll Soup recipe brings together all the irresistible egg roll flavors we love. Clearly, it offers a great selection of topping options.
Weed of the season: Dandelion,Taraxacum officinale Chill weather slows down grass growth in our lawns and we can notice the bright yellow flowers of Taraxacum officinale, the common dandelion. In our mild climate, dandelions bloom nearly year-round.
Perennials: California Fuchsias (Zauschneria californica or Epilobium canum) (The name has been changed recently from Zauschneria to Epilobium, but either name will work when finding it with Google).
