Society of Feline Gardeners- Thursday in the Garden with Jonesie
::3 paw taps::
Welcome back to my garden. We had 1 day of sunny weather last week. We took full advantage! Cory and Ellie spent their time rolling around on our deck. This is me looking up at them.
Figaro and I had better things to do. We are not yet able to plant any of our vegetables. It's still way too wet and cold. We have had hardly any days of weather above 55 degrees. We're afraid if we plant little baby plants, they will rot. That would be too sad.
Figaro thinks that it makes sense to look cool. I have no idea how that is helpful, but he said if he does this it keeps mom and dad out in the garden for longer periods of time. It works.
I walked away from him and he followed me. He still knows that he needs to stick with me if he's to learn anything about gardening. Our Solomon's Seal is starting to look healthy and green. Soon it will get little white/green flowers.
I helped mom research it on the web and this is what she found out:
Solomon's Seal is edible and medicinal, the young edible shoots are an excellent vegetable when boiled and eaten like Asparagus.
Can you believe mom and dad have been growing this for years and had no idea they could eat the stuff!
You're welcome mom and dad.
They have not been brave enough to try it yet.
I admit that I'm getting tired of all the soggy dreary rain we've been getting. I know I've meowed about having patience, but I'm beginning to run out. I even voluntarily stayed inside the house last Sunday. Me...garden cat. Lover of the great outdoors, queen of my yard.
Yes, the warm couch has been looking really good.
My one sunny day will have to be enough to sustain me until REAL spring arrives. Whenever that is.
Hope you are getting some sunbeams in your garden!
Please leave a link so all of our garden pals can visit.
