Just a quick update from the Humboldt Bay region of Calif.
Lady Bender and I have reached the stage in our lives that we had to hire a gardening service to clean up our yard and garden and not sure we will plant anything this spring...
So sorry to hear that! But, I’m glad you’re hiring out some help! Keep providing wisdom and guidance to this group for as long as you can!
And tell Lady Bender to keep baking pies if she can! :)
Sad! I enjoyed looking at your gardening pictures!
Are there any easy to maintain permanent plantings you can make? (Beside chives!!)

Fig trees grow quickly and are fairly easy to grow and maintain! Some varieties will tolerate a cooler pacific coastal area!
😢Oh no. Maybe just one little plant in a Pot in the window sill if nothing else? I was just thinking about you when I sat down to read the thread.
I was wondering what kind of corn you were going to be using this year, What is the date of the last frost, and how many weeks before that you would plant it?
I was also looking at your big planters for the tomatoes in the greenhouse. I wondered if you had to move them out of the greenhouse in the summer due to the heat—we’ve had some trouble with ours getting so hot, I think it cooked the leaves and roots.
Please stick around to help us with questions as long as you feel up to it.
Hubby has been searching out all sorts of perennials cause we aren’t getting any younger, and we do like to have at least some of our own produce as long as we can manage it.
Damn
