Most people grace only ceilings, walls or Christmas tree with lights. Why not put lights on each of the pine trees or shrubs in your garden? Even on a statue or around the pond or on garden accessories.


What a difference a few lights make!

Hey homoe,

Awww, I am thinking these are yours. Nice, very nice!

I put a multicolor string on a little ugly wild tree last year in my front yard. I think it brought that tree much cheer.

:)

From Portland's Pistils Nursery........
 
By mounting staghorn ferns you can create a piece of the jungle you can hang on your wall.

Choose a specimen in a 4-inch pot. Give it some water and carefully remove most of the soil from its root. Next wrap the fern's exposed roots in a moist sphagnum moss, and cover with a pouch of breathable plastic mesh. Using a staple gun secure the bundle to a cedar board. Staple or use copper nails to cover the plastic-mesh pouch with burlap.

Hang your living art with a simple picture hook and a wire loop.

As an alternative to Poinsettias try Christmas Cactus. Grow this long-living winter bloomer in bright indirect sunlight. While it's flowering, water and feed weekly with liquid cactus and succulent food.

Oh... cool thread! I love gardening tho it's so much harder here in Texas than California. But... I'm determined to figure something out for my yards! :koolaid:

Senecio ficoides skyscraper; a crowd pleasing succulent that's happy indoors or out. In a container this tall upright grower with blue-green foliage reaches 2 to 3 feet without any staking. As a houseplant, it needs bright indirect light or place it in a sunny spot in your garden/yard once the danger of frost has passed. :veggie:

I just made a quick trip to Tractor Supply. If you've never been... it's pretty neat! It's like … a much smaller Home Depot but for farmers and cattle ranchers. There's stuff there you didn't know you needed till you saw it! :koolaid:

I needed some T-BARS (tall metal stakes) to secure this three year old Bur Oak I bought a couple years ago. It's GROWING and now LEANING in a way that makes me nervous. I'll post a picture or two later this week.

However if you do have a poinsettia, to keep it thriving after the holidays, place it in a spot that gets bright morning daylight and avoid hot afternoon sun. Keep them slightly moist and away from drafts of hot or cold air

Enjoy the fresh scent of an herb garden by snipping stems of bay, culinary sage, lavender, mint, and rosemary.

Add these plus seed heads of fennel, sweet cicely and yarrow to flowers arrangements, garlands, swags, or wreaths.
