Feb 16th cottonwood community gardens.

i did not take a lot f photos this day as i was focused on some repairs to my garden boxes, terraces and other landscape needs. Non of these are of my plot.

Blueberry bush budding.

A goose berry bush In early spring. I plan on eventually doing write ups on various individual plants, including photos through out their growing phases. Of not about gooseberries is that they collect a lot of natural yeasts making them ideal for a catalyst in making homemade alcohol, which is something i will also do a write up on in the future, as i further develop the site.

 

These are my indoor yam plant at about a week since the start of growth The first one, in the blue dish is hydroponic. The second is in a large plastic salad box with dirt. My father built a rectangle out of 1x1 boards for it to grow along. I need to be careful with the ditrt one because fungal growth will cause an out brake of fungus gnats in the house, which i may post pictures of the amount fo dead gnats that were around the house.

This is one of the eagles that lives in cottonwood community gardens. This one is hanging out a couple trees west of the gardens

One of the eagles that lives near the gardens. this is their second nest ive seen them live in since ive started visiting cottonwood community gardens. This next and eagle are near the north west corner of the gardens.

This is the west entrance to cottonwood community gardens. The eagle nest is to the right of this picture.The original picture are all on a friends computer, which is lame because i had to save these from my facebook account which im pretty sure degrades the quality. Originally oi named every plant in the first 3 garden plots because the quality was so goo d i could zoom right in.

 

This is facing east 180 degrees of where i was facing previous. The placement of the other pictures is messed up and wont give me a place to write up on the other photos, so i will make note of them here.The first is a hollyhock, i do not name the succulent that is under neath it, though i have 3 varieties in my garden.One variety is edible, i have it booked marked somewhere and if i find it i will update. Theres also a plant in the top left that i can see very well in this format but i believe its mellisa officianalis. The next photo should be crocuses in a tribute plot, i cant see the other plants well enough to idnetify them, but with a good picture viewer this is an amazing picture the colours and the textures are great.  The next photo is of a magenta primrose. The photo after that is one of the elder gardeners of the community gardens gardens, wow, does that sentence make sense. He use to be the benevolent dictator until some fools wanted democratic process. Democracy in this situation takes to long, we only spend an hour and a bit talking all together at the work parties. He new the layout of the whole gardens and being benevolent and all was fair and allowed people to do things as long as it wasnt going to be harmful to the gardens.
