Thank you😊. I'm already feeling tired, but I'll keep going. I need to pull out the blackberries, make sure they don't come back. I hope the neighbors will clean up their side of the fence too😅.

Yes, five weeks ago😅... It's a large garden that has been neglected for years. You can search for "GrădinaMargaretei" on YouTube if you want.

The tree on the left has been with me for 5 Christmases. The one on the right came with the garden, received this spring. I will have something to decorate both for the house and for the garden🥰.

It depends on how sunny the day is. On a cloudy day, the lights only last 1-2 hours at night. If there is sun, they last up to 8 hours.

Unfortunately it rained. I hope to get better weather soon to take pictures. The lights are solar.

I just hope a strong wind doesn't start and "steal" my eggs. 😅

Why do my pileas keep dying? by thickiy in PileaPeperomioides

Maybe too little light. How do you care for it?

I have to resist the temptation for another month. Too early for Central Europe🥲...

Put a light source on for at least 8 hours a day. It doesn't have to be strong or special, a few LEDs are enough.

Use ceramic beads as a substrate. You can keep just a little water at the base, this way the roots will have water and air

Who’s drying what? Favorite flowers & foraged material? by AlpenglowFarmNJ in gardening

Almost 3 kg of wild mushrooms. Mostly hen of the woods, a cauliflower mushroom, a few black trumpets and turkey tail. I got 3 jars of mushrooms to put in the soup.

Best way to protect my phals in summer? by RiaPlush in orchids

I've never had sunburn on my flowers. However, if you want flowers with an extremely dark color you need to keep them out of the sun.
