Yucca Plant Rescue: Why Is My Yucca Plant Drooping? How To Revive A Drooping Yucca Plant (With Pictures)
Reasons Why A Yucca Plant Would Droop One day I noticed that all of a sudden my yucca plant was no longer sturdy and upright but was instead looking droopy and leaning over - quite severely actually, as you can see in the first picture below. Since yucca plants are known for being hardy and requiring minimal maintenance I knew there was something very wrong. A healthy yucca will not start drooping or leaning just because it grows larger and more top-heavy. A yucca plant with healthy stems can easily withstand the pressure of additional weight so, given the state of my plant, it was imperative that I diagnose the…

Why Has My Orchid Suddenly Changed Color? The Mystery Of Color Changing Orchids
A Color Cornucopia of Orchids There are a couple of times throughout the year when an innocent walk through a garden center at the local home improvement store, Walmart, or even grocery store, becomes an exercise in self-restraint and willpower -- for me, that time is orchid season. When fresh orchids are delivered and prominently displayed in garden centers everywhere, it can feel like walking through an art museum - or a gauntlet designed to test the willpower - impossible to just pass by without stopping, gawking at, and sometimes, buying one of these all natural "works of art." Dendrobiums and phalaenopsises of every color jockey for attention, hanging out…

It May Be Late Summer But Signs Show Fall Is In The Air… Plus Is My Geranium Dead Or Just In Need Of Pruning? Rescuing Summer-Weary & Wilted Geraniums From The Florida Heat
"I saw old Autumn in the misty morn stand shadowless like silence, listening to silence." Thomas Hood "The quiet August noon has come; a slumberous silence fills the sky; the fields are still, the woods are dumb, in glassy sleep waters lie." W.C.

So I’ve been on something of a greens kick lately - specifically watercress - as I'd been wanting to explore what exactly is so great about these dark leafy greens. And then there it was - freshly stocked in the produce aisle, beckoning, as if to remind me of all the wondrous things I have read about it...

Parsley And Its Many Health Benefits Plus The Easiest Summer Pasta With Parsley Recipe To Enjoy Your Herb Harvest
“How could such sweet and wholesome hours be reckoned but with herbs and flowers?” Andrew Marvell (1621-1678) “Parsley flourishes where the missus is master.” Traditional “Sprinkle parsley seed on the head three times a year to reverse the effects of balding.” Traditional Parsley And Its Myriad Benefits -- Not Just A Garnish Traditional folklore aside, there is something special about the seemingly humble little parsley herb. Once steeped in superstition and age-old wisdom, in recent times, unfortunately, parsley has become little more than a garnish alongside your restaurant dinner, often overlooked and tossed aside in favor of the more exciting main dish.

Best Ever Old-Fashioned Homestyle Lemon Custard Pudding Cake (With Pictures)
Summer Baking - Summer Memories I recently made this light, lemony, and utterly delicious custardy dessert for a summer barbecue at a friend’s house on the water. To say it was a hit would be a huge understatement. That night a fierce storm lit up the bay with nonstop streaks of lightning brighter than daylight, creating a show that rivaled any fireworks.

A Gardener’s Diary… On Growing Orchids And Five Common Orchid Myths
Although I never intended to make this strictly a gardening website, there is no escaping the increased appeal of anything done out in fresh air in the great outdoors where you don't have to wear a mask the entire time, #quarantine life. Of course, you are getting the benefits of clean, fresh outdoor air and summer sunshine while it lasts, but you are also making the most of the painfully short season before time marches on towards fall. Not to mention, there are few cheaper, all-natural antidotes to the escalating stress of modern life than time spent in the garden. When I lived in Northern climates, my interest in gardening,…
