Gardening with Soule

Have a great Sunday!

The Front Porch is a phrase that probably most of us say every day.  It’s the place to enter your house, it’s the place to relax, it’s the place to talk to your neighbors, and most importantly it’s your way of welcoming family and friends to your home.  Most of us take it for granted [...]

It’s the fifteenth again! September has quickly arrived and is half over already.  My gardens are definitely looking less full but there are still plenty of blooms around.  Some of the flowers are giving their last hurrah as if they know this is it and they are finding the strength to be seen and remembered [...]

You Know you are a gardener when… 1.  You want to dead head other people’s flowers ~like at the Dr.’s office. 2. Your receive potatoes for your birthday~ and they are in a gift bag! 3.

We are finally getting some tomatoes in quantity. We harvested a bunch last night as well as peppers and lots of them.        I even found a tiny pumpkin.   There are still quite a few patches of color around the yard  and many flowers to admire as August winds down.   It’s kind of sad to [...]

It is still friday, so I hope I am not to late to participate in the fun of Fertilizer Friday. (Thanks to Tootsie)  Today was very busy, I worked on my stone patio, before the rain, during the rain and after the rain.  If you can’t beat ‘em, join ‘em.  Otherwise it will never be finished.  [...]

I have yet another great product to tell you about.  It is the Waistie Garden Pouch.  When I first saw it I thought it might be cumbersome and in the way, but once I tried it on and used it I realized it was anything but.  It is so handy when you are weeding and [...]
