Long shot views of your garden...
Comments (68)In those beds out by the street next to the sidewalk, we just planted 2 kinds of fairly robust ground covers - vinca minor and African daisies, and lots of bulbs, and a few roses. The ground covers battle it out, depending on the season and how much sun they get. The bulbs have all proliferated and spread around with no help from me. The roses do need to be protected from being overrun, so they are mostly behind some sort of round plastic barrier bed edging. Bare dirt invites weeds, IMO and experience. This way we have hardly any weeds, except for wild onions which are bulb weeds! (But handy to grab if you are making stew or something, and suddenly realize that you have run out of onions - Jackie...See MoreLong shot—Phal ID?
Comments (10)This post highlights a little problem. It costs Ten English pounds to register an orchid name which is a lot of money for some in countries where the exchange rate is unfavourable. So we get many beautiful orchids grown for the florist trade with no or unregistered names. Doesn't matter all that much, if you took your orchid to an orchid society meeting, it would be judged. The only restriction is that you would not be able to get a quality award from The American Orchid Society. If I was typing up the results, I just look up the RHS Site. I never get names from google. Searching the RHS Database for Phalaenopsis Anthura gives two results, but not Anthura Manhattan below is the result for Anthura Manchester Anthura Manchester Synonym Flag This is not a synonym Registrant Name J.& M.Lattimore Originator Name Anthura Date of registration 01/10/2010 Pollen And Seed parent Unknown So Anthura might be the name of the nursery or the owner of the nursery where your orchid was bred. Added via edit. There are at least 27316 registered Hybrid Phalaenopsis Hybrid names! What is the point of having this enormous register? Find correct names from faded or broken tags where part of the name is visible. You might like to do some orchid breeding, you can check if the orchids you are thinking have been used before and whether or not the results were promising....See MoreI know this is a long shot...
Comments (5)Where did you look? What did you Google? You might find an approximation that you can tweak to get closer to those in the picture. If you're the crafty type? Hobby Lobby has green mercury glass cones. Perhaps you can spray paint the white swirly snow? Or use acrylic craft paint? (out of stock online but in stock in store? Depending on your local pandemic situation/measures, of course...) My post probably won't help much besides bumping it up in the forum and increasing the likelihood of someone with strong Google-fu to see it. Good luck. :)...See MoreLong-shot request – anybody save this recipe?
Comments (10)The monetization of search results means you get responses of what they want you to see, rgather than what you're actually trying to find. It's most annoying. Alternatives often use Google's algorithms, so while they don't have G’s ad pushes, they still have their prejudices....See Moredara_gardener-Vancouver Island, Z8
