How Does Your Garden Grow?: Garden Tragedy Averted
http://lake-wylie-garden.blogspot.com/2011/06/garden-tragedy-averted.html
How Does Your Garden Grow? Thursday, June 2, 2011. In my last post, I mentioned a bit of concern over my tomato plants, which had some spotting on the leaves in recent weeks. I hypothesized that the condition was from too much rain . . . but luckily I asked for a second opinion! Tomato expert and Edgefield Pottery. Guru Phil Wingard informed me that the situation was quite dire! My plants had contracted a leaf canker - which is highly contagious! And Lake Wylie homes for sale. Lake Wylie real estate.

How Does Your Garden Grow?: April 2011
http://lake-wylie-garden.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
How Does Your Garden Grow? Tuesday, April 19, 2011. It's always a bit tough getting used to a new home, right? Quite an adjustment, for sure. The first morning after planting, I checked on all of my charges and with the exception of the little okra plant that was puny from the get-go, they all looked good. Morning #2, however, a couple of okra plants looked like they had a rough night. Too much fertilizer, perhaps? Or perhaps separation anxiety? Lake Wylie dock building.

How Does Your Garden Grow?: Plowing the fields
http://lake-wylie-garden.blogspot.com/2011/04/plowing-fields.html
How Does Your Garden Grow? Sunday, April 17, 2011. My dear husband tilled and hoed the lower 40 yesterday. (The lower 40 square feet, that is . . . ) That is particularly impressive if you consider that he is a strict meat-itarian, and shuns most vegetation, including the Almighty Tomato. Yet each year he tills the soil and hoes the rows so that I can play in the dirt. Is that true love, or what? Thanks for reading my blog. To read more about Lake Wylie real estate. Or Edgefield Stoneware Pottery. And ot...

How Does Your Garden Grow?: June 2011

How Does Your Garden Grow? Thursday, June 23, 2011. Here it is late June, and my garden is once again showing signs of utter, total failure. I'm not posting pictures; I fear that the Department of Social Services Agricultural Division might see them and come out to confiscate. Truly, it could happen. I sent a plea for help from Phil Wingard, "The Tomato Man" in the summer and the Edgefield Pottery. Incidentally, if you want to try some of Phil's heirlooms, he just sold a bunch to Terra. In my last post, ...

Stay-cation on Lake Wylie: Stay-cation on Lake Wylie
http://lake-wylie-vacation.blogspot.com/2008/06/stay-cation-on-lake-wylie.html
Stay-cation on Lake Wylie. Sunday, June 29, 2008. Stay-cation on Lake Wylie. Anyway, we had a lot of good times at the river. My grandparents' shack only had one small bedroom, which served well as a napping place for younger siblings. A couple of summers we rented a larger cabin so the whole family (there were seven of us) could stay the week, and that was a real treat! I might record our adventures on this blog, I might not. Whenever I go to the beach on vacation, I always read quite a bit and ofte...

How Does Your Garden Grow? Sunday, January 9, 2011. Month-by-Month Guide to Lawn and Garden. Great article in The Charlotte Observer this week, written by Nancy Brachey, providing a month-by-month list of lawn and garden activities for our area and climate. I'll summarize for a quick "to-do" list:. Check flower beds to make sure no perennials have dislodged. As daffodil tips emerge, fertilize ground with 10-10-10. Prune evergreens (laurel, holly, boxwoods, etc. to improve shape and size. Dig, divide and ...

How Does Your Garden Grow?: July 2008
http://lake-wylie-garden.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html
How Does Your Garden Grow? Saturday, July 5, 2008. Meanwhile, I have a (as in ONE) fist sized tomato on the "Kellogg's Breakfast" plant. Ultimately it should turn yellow/orange. My daughter has been eyeing it for a dish of fried green tomatoes, but with the lack of production of this crop, that ain't happening. Maybe I can get him to bring some tomatoes as well . . .

Stay-cation on Lake Wylie: Visit to Heron Island!
http://lake-wylie-vacation.blogspot.com/2008/07/visit-to-heron-island.html
Stay-cation on Lake Wylie. Tuesday, July 1, 2008. Visit to Heron Island! Day Three of our "Stay-cation" on Lake Wylie! Early this morning, Tony and I fixed a pot of coffee and headed over to see the herons nesting on the little island at the mouth of Nivens Creek. We arrived shortly after 6am. The herons were just waking up, pestering one another until several flew off for friendlier space. Tony spotted what he thought was a turtle in the water. Turned out it was our anchor rope! What a great idea! Refle...
