    Landscaping from Scratch

    BySharon Williams April 5, 2013March 19, 2014

    My Mom and Dad recently moved into a new house which means they are landscaping from scratch. There are good lines on the porch and in the yard, but it definitely needs some flowers and accents to turn this yard into a homey garden. My daughter and I headed up there this past weekend with…

    How to Plant Hens and Chickens

    BySharon Williams October 17, 2012February 14, 2014

    A few weeks ago, a neighbor gave me a small start of hens and chickens. I have seen and admired these on other people’s porch, but never had my own. I left them in the milk jug for a few weeks and let them just continue to grow. But a few weeks ago I picked…

    All about Apple Trees

    BySharon Williams August 14, 2012March 31, 2021

    It’s late summer. It’s all about apple trees in Kentucky. I went out to a friend’s farm last week and picked apples. They were just hanging off the branches. We filled bags of apples; then filled a huge bag of the spotty ones for the horses. The horses loved them. Have you fed a horse…

    How to make a Seashell Windchime

    BySharon Williams June 15, 2012April 24, 2014

    We collected some amazing seashells while we were in Florida. Since I love my flower gardens and we had tons of shells, we decided to try to make a seashell windchime. My husband got out the drill and put some holes in the shells. (Remember that I don’t touch the power tools. I don’t have…

    Gardening with Perennials

    BySharon Williams March 2, 2012March 20, 2014

    Some people get confused: Which plants are perennials and which ones are annuals? Annuals bloom only one season and perennials come back each year! If you are planning to order some perennials or plant some this spring here are some tips to help you started in the right direction!

    Dreaming of Daffodils

    BySharon Williams November 13, 2011November 1, 2018

    It’s mid-November and I’m already dreaming of daffodils….and tulips….and crocuses…. ok, you get the idea. Today my husband surprised me with several bags of daffodil and tulip bulbs that he found at Walmart for 50% off! He knows that my absolute favorite flower is the daffodil and I’ve always dreamed of having hundreds of of…

    Birdwatching

    BySharon Williams November 7, 2011November 3, 2012

    I love seeing the birds in our yard. But I know very little about birdwatching. Last year we had a huge group of birds roost in our birch tree and we had no clue what they were. So we took pictures and looked online. Then I sent an email to our local Wildlife office. Within…
