Pruning the Roses!! #Hausandgarten
I didn’t get a chance to do much in the way of gardening this spring. First, every weekend for awhile there brought rain, and then I ended up having surgery requiring almost one month recovery time. Now that that’s over with, I have finally been able to wander through my garden and do some of the inevitable to-do’s. I discovered…

Wortcunning for Daemonolatry
FINALLY — I am happy to announce the release of Wortcunning for Daemonolatry. It was long overdue. The problem being I kept finding more and more to add. I don’t know how to put the pen down and step away from the manuscript evidently. In this ultimate Daemonolatry formulary, learn tried and true techniques, as well as quick and dirty tips,…

2015 Garden – The Plan
It’s that time of year again. Another ominous blog title heralds that spring has sprung, I’ve taken an inventory of seeds, and my garden plans are underway. I usually have grand, overly-ambitious plans every year, and only about 1/3 of the plan ever manifests into the actual garden whether I ran out of time, got lazy, or something just wouldn’t grow. This…

I Love Productive Days
Overall today was a very productive writing day. I put down 1,000 on one book, 3,000 on another, and a scant but workable 1,000 on Lily. I’m getting some of these lingering projects that I’ve been working on forever off of my plate so I can move forward. In case anyone missed the announcement, I have a new Daemonolatry book coming out called…

Garden Goodness: It’s a Greenhouse!
So finally, after several years of putting it off, my husband and I finally put up the greenhouse kit we bought several years ago for about $250 (with a coupon – Harbor Freight!). I’m rather excited about it. As a novice Rocky Mountain gardener, one of the biggest annoyances I’ve encountered with the garden is that our growing season is…

Planty Goodness
So today I realized I hadn’t done a blog update on all the plants. Some plants are doing great, others are cranky with me. Let’s start with the veggies. The lettuce has all been eaten. Believe it or not, two lettuce plants provided us with about four good sized salads. The tomatoes are just starting to flower. The bell pepper…

2012 Winter Garden
So I think it’s time for a winter garden update. First let’s talk about Dwight the Mandrake. I mentioned in another post earlier this month how my nephew was taking care of Dwight and how Dwight was looking awesome when we got home from vacation. Then within a week, Dwight wasn’t looking nearly as good. I discovered it was because…

Birds, Bees, and Bats!
As my backyard slowly makes its way into something slightly resembling the nature paradise in my imagination, I’m considering more design elements meaning to bring more wildlife into our space. I’ve never been one of those neat-tidy yard people. I like a little bit of randomness in the garden. Of course right now our backyard is a veritable weeded wonderland. …

From Seed: Belladonna (this year aero start) Nightshade (this year aero start) Calamus (this year aero start) Lemon Balm (this year aero start) Mandrake (smaller pots + grow lamp) Tomatoes (aero start) Beans Peas Peppers (aero start) Cukes (possible aero start) Beets From Roots, Cuttings and Starts Mandrake (already started) Potatoes (try, try again)…
