Purple and GoldI came out of church Sunday and the beds were filled with purple and gold. I went to one of my all-time favorite nurseries on Monday, and it was filled with purple and gold. So I thought to myself, "I think I'll write about purple and gold." Photo: Purple and gold wildflowers at North Haven Gardens this week. |

Crape Myrtle Cut-backEarly January was unkind to crape myrtles. Many Texans, especially North Texans, found major damage and dieback. I posted this panel on Facebook two nights ago, then I decided I needed to share it here, too. Photo: New sprouts point to the future for this crape myrtle. But there's a concern. |

Native SonSteven Chamblee, my friend and respected garden ally, has found culture. Actually, cultures. Hes brought a serious upgrade to e-gardens by his study of a special subset of the culture of Snaxet. Dont miss it! Photo: Steven contemplates his ancestor as his ancestor contemplates Steven. |

And, in closingThat's what we compiled for e-gardens for this week. I hope you enjoyed it, and I really hope you'll tell someone else about it. Drop them a note with this link right now. Just copy and paste: Thought
you might enjoy seeing something I read every week: I'll sign off for now, but let's meet up on the radio, through my podcasts, in the newspaper, on Facebook, at my website, or in church (where we have those beautiful flowers). Until next week, Happy Gardening! Neil |
