My first week back at work has come and gone and so far so good. I’ve pulled more flats of primulas this week then any one man should ever have to. Of course this is an expected meditation that one becomes blind to after being in the greenhouse trade for a while. If it isn’t primulas, it’s pansys, or marigolds.. Potato.. tomato… The life of a green thumb.
Anyhow onto more relaxing occasions. I visited a friend and coworker of mine out in metchosin today. While his garden is usually bursting with life, like my own garden most of everything is asleep. A favorite bed of mine is his Dinosaur park, a large concrete above ground bed filled with sedums, creeping thyme and miniature dinosaurs. Mix in a couple of patches of sempervivums (hens and chicks) and you have an all year round Micro Jurassic Park. I snapped a couple photos with my Iphone.
