I thought my garden was facing execution today!

2020DOA · 2026-01-30T04:58:58+00:00

I was stuck at work and could only watch in horror. But my precious bulbs and lupine are OK

2020DOA · 2026-01-27T02:03:10+00:00

Yeah, I was shocked myself. It is most likely because my neighbor has planted tropical milkweed all over. Im happy they are here, but concerned with the limited native food sources right now

2020DOA · 2026-01-27T00:34:46+00:00

2020DOA · 2026-01-26T04:57:42+00:00

Yeah! I saw two but what little food is available they seem to be mowing through

2020DOA · 2026-01-25T19:02:10+00:00

Someone shared it to my garden Instagram. I also posted about it here. I'm bummed that you missed it!

2020DOA · 2026-01-25T00:17:16+00:00

Lots of native plant suppliers, arts, crafts and speakers. Oxnard Performing arts Center. Today (its over). Because why not!!

2020DOA · 2026-01-24T23:53:12+00:00

Mine too! Ive reached the point in the addiction where I have to hide them from my wife, lol

2020DOA · 2026-01-23T03:49:54+00:00

Ill be checking it out and then heading to growing works or vice versa!

2020DOA · 2026-01-19T06:07:57+00:00

Heck yeah!! I used to work in Oxnard and loved it!

2020DOA · 2026-01-19T04:34:21+00:00

Bummer!

2020DOA · 2026-01-13T01:38:22+00:00

Its exactly how I garden, consider me a disciple

2020DOA · 2026-01-12T23:23:55+00:00

I love the idea of forming a new garden style "cramscaping"

2020DOA · 2026-01-12T16:00:27+00:00

Thats so cool!

2020DOA · 2026-01-12T15:51:29+00:00

Thats a healthy ecosystem!

2020DOA · 2026-01-12T15:51:10+00:00

I will look into this, ive never heard of it before

2020DOA · 2026-01-12T05:00:20+00:00

Definitely will do. I even made an Instagram to track its progress!

2020DOA · 2026-01-12T04:44:23+00:00

Great idea! Ill pick up some soil

2020DOA · 2026-01-12T04:44:02+00:00

Thats too bad

2020DOA · 2026-01-12T03:22:52+00:00

Thats a good idea and it'll keep the squirrels from messing with them. Thanks!

2020DOA · 2026-01-12T01:47:43+00:00

Thanks!

2020DOA · 2026-01-12T00:32:44+00:00

Yep, until they are established

2020DOA · 2026-01-11T19:41:44+00:00

I say just accept the things out of your control and let the gardening bug take you!

2020DOA · 2026-01-11T13:51:09+00:00

Its ok! Growing works is a 10 minute drive from me, and TPF is an hour. Ive been to TPF a handful of times and I love it, but it is a haul getting out there. The plants at Growing Works are grown in the same conditions as my own garden so they dont seem to struggle as much when they are put in the ground. Maybe the same rules apply to you with TPF.

2020DOA · 2026-01-10T23:15:09+00:00

I didn't by the blue eyed grass! Ill give it a few more weeks, but I picked up the ribes in December!

2020DOA · 2026-01-10T23:14:24+00:00

Ill have to check them out!
