The Garden Guy
The Garden Guy
This year ‘The Garden Guy’ decided to add some dwarf buddleia into his arsenal of pollinator plants. The idea of 3-foot tall or less buddleias, or butterfly bushes, seemed like just what the doctor ordered to be able to incorporate them with lantanas, rudbeckias, gaillardia and salvias for a colorful wild Serengetistyle backyard habitat. Lo and behold, I have a found a Garden Guy favorite. 08/02/2020 04:00 AM

Lemon Coral Sedum: Tough as nails in this sweltering heat
Every year most of us hit that period where the heat crosses over from hot to oppressive and we know the tough season for our plants has arrived.

Webinar to address questions about various education options for next school year
Several months ago, if a person asked about homeschool, the term carried a very different connotation from what it does today. As something that began as a fringe movement among church organizations to combine education with religion, homeschooling has been thrust into the mainstream when the coronavirus drastically altered the face of education this spring. 07/26/2020 12:00 AM

The Journey Continues: The Craft of Writing
My journey this week takes me to the craft of writing. During this Pandemic, what we experience is new and unique – it needs to be recorded. Moses, when camped on the Plains of Moab, was commanded by the Lord to record the spiritual and geographic progress of the journey. “At the Lord’s command, Moses recorded the stages of the journey” Numbers 33:2 (NIV). 07/26/2020 12:00 AM
