Moving on

August 31st, 2009 · 1 Comment

Things are winding down in my Nevada garden. I will be relocating to Kansas City soon. I’ll need to learn to garden all over again. And get used to a place that doesn’t count its precipitation inch by precious inch. I will be able to grow giant tomatoes again. But I will miss the desert. It has been my home for almost 15 years. Learning to garden in the desert–high or low–tests a gardener’s patience and fortitude. My efforts have been rewarded many times over. If you are new to desert gardening, I urge you to be patient. Don’t give up! You can make it work if you embrace your environment.

There are some plants that will make the move with me but I have others that need homes. If you are a gardener in the Reno area and would like to adopt plants–or need nursery pots for propagation–let me know.

    Sorry to hear you’re leaving the area. I’ve really enjoyed reading about your gardening adventures and comparing them with mine.
