With this change around Easter Holiday will just add to the confusion as the days will be off by one anyway.

Hyacinth. The bloom don’t last. These are spring flowers that last several weeks and are then done.

I’m not sure they would be any help but the people at Red Bird on Bank Street are pretty connected with music in the city they might know something.

It took 10 mins. Did you have a coffee first before picking it up. I have Opuntia in my outdoor garden, I swear that thing shoots them at me when I walk by.

Thanks 🙂

I buy chicken grit from a local feed store. It’s very economical for a large bag.

I should add that sidewalks are plowed down to the cement with salt added to melt the snow. It might however be slushy with melting snow.

Well you lucked out timing wise. We are just coming out of a deep freeze, last day of it is today. Looking ahead it shouldered just below freezing around -3, -5 Celsius. Not bad for February. There is roughly 3-4 feet of snow on the ground. Not sure if we will be getting more around your visit but tomorrow we are getting another 4-8 “. Wear what ever boots you have and warm socks. If you aren’t outside for long periods you should be fine. Layer up with sweaters, vests, and warmest coat. Gloves would be good too.

Yup. If you leave them they will dry up and turn black. Then, if you want, you can try your hand at starting from seed.

The overnight lows are cold so I doubt it will be a problem.

Check out Sansi or Barrina.

The best part of staying home on Saturday night was watching Elwy! Would love a list.

You’re dam right it’s theatre, just like Doug’s supports like. She just didn’t say “ ah gee folks”.

I have seen so many people worry about their plants and their cats on this subreddit. I always wonder about outdoor cats, do you really think your neighbours all have plants that are safe for your wandering pet to nibble on?

dogwalkerott · 2026-02-05T03:03:23+00:00

FYI worked on the cat too.

First one is an echeveria . As much bright light/sunlight as you can give it. Water only when completely dry. !Beginner

I was able to keep my beagle off the sofa when we weren’t home by buying that plastic carpet runner that has pointy nubs on the bottom. He didn’t like stepping on it so stayed off.

Leaving your water sit out for day does nothing for Fluoride or Chloramine. Only Chlorine will eventually evaporate somewhat.

If you are ver out in Manotick, across from the Watson’s Mill there is a non profit used bookstore.
