My stand of tulips did especially well this year.  I counted twelve of them.  Far more blooms than in past years.

I haven't tried it.  Utilizing copper for plant growth is an ancient practice.  In another video, I watched one guy say that farmers are cautioned not to use it because they would actually grow too large of a crop, thus they wouldn't get a good price for their produce.

An EllGab Garden action shot.  I was on a neighborhood walk when I noticed a large plume of smoke.  It wasn't a fire though, and it wasn't smoke.  When I got to the street, I saw a machine that was emitting steam.  Some workers were replacing a sewer line with some kind of contraption that does it without having to dig up the older existing pipes.

Later on in the day, I captured a cold front (on the right) as it pushed into the warmer system on the left.

Gonna try it when I scarf up some copper. Thanks Rix.

Had some dazzling cumulus clouds up in the EllGab Garden skies a couple weeks back.

It isn't uncommon for the space brothers to fly inside of them as they monitor us earthlings down below and sometimes you can spot their craft.  What, you can't see it?

There, just look for the small dot under the arrow.  (Click for larger image.)

Here we have The White Rose of York, so named after the House of York.  You remember them, don't you?  Right, they were the armed force that fought in the War of the (what else could it be?) Roses.  This EllGab Garden rose bush is in good company.  My old pal, George Washington, planted one just like it at Mount Vernon.

The freezing weather here is doing my sweet potatoes no good.  Normal 6AM temperature this time of year is 80F.  Today the high at 3PM is 78.
Merry Christmas

I got last Autumn's pansies still going strong here.  Normally they would have melted into butter by now.

Just the other day, while watering my tomato and pepper plants, I wondered how JUAN's sweet potatoes were doing.  We've had rather hot weather here on the west coast.  Coupled with some thunder storms, complete with hail.

That’s not where butter comes from
Are we having fun yet?
