Nest
I love how you can see that 3 eggs occupied the perfect soft nest.
Happy Endings
We are glad our good mouser “Eddie”, survived his brush with an Eagle .
Bachelor’s Button
Growing Red, Blue and Black Boy –Bachelor’s Buttons this year.
The greenhouse
Nothing better than a warm greenhouse.
Can’t wait!
Stonecrop
Stonecrop is the common name for the large plant family of Sedum
“known for their foliage, flowers, hardiness and variety”
Perfect!
I have been adding new plants each year, and now have lot’s of Mother plants to take cuttings from.
I fill flats with a sand and soil-less potting mix.
Tuck in all the little cuttings, and wait patiently in the greenhouse.
When they resist a little tug–they are ready for either a larger pot–or right to the garden.
The Pickery
Provided many cut flowers this past garden season.
Zinnia’s add such a punch of color.

Rabbit Run Cottage–the story
5 years ago we “dropped” our little garden shed
into a weed patch of our new property.
I had little time to ponder the placement of the beloved shed–I was just grateful it had made the journey.
I knew it was the beginning of my garden.
A garden I had dreamed of nearly my entire adult life.
So let’s take a little peak back in time–and see how Rabbit Run Cottage was created.
Tea Parties Daily
Its colors are more muted for the garden, and the play kitchen was retired. A pile of pillows, quilts and books are in the loft. Lucy is very gracious in sharing her little house with me.
Thought I’d repost this from last year….
It’s a good time to start planning those Spring projects!
Hope this gives you a little inspiration.
Foxglove
I hope the foxglove self seed this Spring…
but just in case–I will start more in the greenhouse.
A little difficult to grow in zone 4, but worth the effort.
