Gardening blog's helpful posts of the week [Week 8]

  • Colleen from In the Garden Online has put together a helpful post on forcing spring flowering branches. This is a great idea if you're trying to add some colour into your home.
  • Jane Perrone's Horticultural blog reviews some alternatives to using plastic bags. I can see their purpose for allotment gardeners but I think they could also be helpful for gardeners across the board.
  • If you love garden whimsy that's a little left-of-centre you're going to enjoy Tricia's post at As the Garden Grows. She's unveiled a terrific lawn creature that sits comes in multiple pieces and looks as though it's buried beneath the lawn.
  • Katie from Gotta Garden demonstrates how to repot a dendrobium orchid. BTW - she even has a banner for the Garden Blog Directory - Kudos Katie.
  • Katina offers some helpful tips when planning a kids garden on her Katina's Little Gardeners blog. Great tips if you've got a few ankle-biters running around destroying your the heads of your flowering hippeastrums.
  • Marc from the Garden Desk wrote some great ideas for what he's planning to do in the garden in 2007. I especially liked his take on planting more heirloom tomatoes.

Hi Stuart. Thanks for the mention. Off-topic...have you considered doing a sidebar-sized badge for the gardening directory? The way my blog/site is set up, a banner just won't fit in with the design. Something in the sidebar, I could do. Just a thought. Like you need more to do, right? :-)
