Comments on: uh-oh, or yippee? which is it for you? http://awaytogarden.com/uh-oh-or-yippee-which-is-it-for-you Organic gardening inspiration from Margaret Roach Sat, 11 Feb 2012 16:26:23 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: ReadSing http://awaytogarden.com/uh-oh-or-yippee-which-is-it-for-you/comment-page-2#comment-3346 ReadSing Wed, 17 Sep 2008 19:12:52 +0000 http://awaytogarden.com/?p=961#comment-3346 Woo Hoo in Minnesota Zone 3/4? A first sign in these parts is when the sumac start turning bright red (like right now). My husband gets romantic and reminds me this was the time of year we first met. It's become our love symbol. We are planning a romantic getaway for the 1st October weekend, hoping to wallow in the fall color splendor. Predicting the exact location of peak colors can be tricky, but that's part of the fun. I also start getting excited about compost this time of year. The black gold harvest is here!! I need to get distributing, and storing it now so I have a place to put the new leaves this Oct/Nov.

Moving plants around is what gardening really is, isn't it? Try a few times before giving up, I figure. Do come again soon. Welcome, Cindy, another “Yippee!” voter.

The best month of the year for me is October with it's long shadows and earthtones! Although, we've had a decent summer here in the metro D.C. area, I really can't complain... and the recent tropical storm made everything perc up! I'm a wannabe gardener... most of my plants have seen two or more "homes" before they adapt to a good spot. The lucky ones are still alive. However, I have a long way to go! Thanks for your great blog and I enjoyed your article this morning (9/11/08) in the Washington Post. Yippee!!! The best month of the year for me is October with it’s long shadows and earthtones!
