Lysichiton americanus
Finally got it.... I was looking for skunk cabbage for a while. but now when I got my pond done i was nearly mad about them. And today is the day. ordered on line yellow and white one. hope they are easy to grow. anybody grow them??? was very tempting to buy few water lillies but i will wait for specials in Lidls. my cherry tomatoes doing great on the window sill and pak choi will be ready for polytunnel in 2 weeks.
Love spring.

i loving it
Hello to all,
Its been really busy time to us. Christmas , New year , and now snow. Its really bad with the snow in Avoca, but the landscape does look magic. its like been back to mine chilhood. I am really sorry to all the troubles what the snow cost, but i love it so much. Its so beautiful like from the fairy tale. and its not important we do not have water for last 3 days- thanks gods for the brook so animals can be waterred, toilets can be used, so what that our gas froze too - always nice to have oven baked fish...and chips, i even walked 7 miles up and down to get antibiotics for our sick foal, cause cars would be able to go up our lane.... I still running around with 3 jumpers and enjoying snow. so perfect, the nature is just perfect and just shows how poweful it can be.
not sure about my garden flowers... never had a chance to cover roses, hope they are fine.polytunnel does look like tunnel - dark inside cause snow on the top...i was reading everybodies journals and looks like i am behind with sowing vegs. will start on monday, hope so.
