Primrose in January





First real post. Here are some primrose in January. I am in Zone 6/7 here in south New Jersey. The color on my ultra crappy digital camera made these primrose blue they were more like purple. I like the color in the picture better.




We had a really warm January http://www.erh.noaa.gov/er/phi/reports/5dayavgtemps.html

That type of weather makes me crazy because you know in your heart you can't get out there and start dickering around in the garden so I instead took pictures of the fallow winter plot















and built a worm bin















I like these directions:

I also am going to try my hand at wintersowing and raised bed gardening.

Some of my goals for this season include but are not limited to:


  • Grow a hop vine
  • Grow worms in the worm bin
  • plant successful raised beds
  • successfully grow "Three Sisters" corn, beans and squash planted together

Coming soon, pictures of frames for raised bed gardens and pictures of wintersown containers.
