I got out in the gardens a little bit yesterday. It was such a beautiful day! Warm-ish and sunny, it strangely felt like a breezy Spring day… The soil is so soft from all the rain & warm temps & the robins and other birds were pulling worms 🐛 out of the ground and singing.

The birds were out in force feasting on seeds, berries & worms 🐛

I took this short video from above one of my Waterfalls looking down the stream as it flows away.

“I heard a bird sing

In the dark of December

A magical thing

And sweet to remember.”

“We are nearer to Spring

Than we were in September,

I heard a bird sing

In the dark of December.”

~ Oliver Herford.

Have a a great day!

I sat by my Pond yesterday for quite a while. Listening to the wind & waterfalls and watching the leaves fall and blow around. It was a very windy, cloudy, melancholy type of day… But I found a little beauty in it to share 😊

I slowed this still photo down a bit and it really shows the soft, foamy, splashy effect of the Falls. | Carters Nursery, Pond & Patio | Jackson, TN

Have a great Monday!

It was a perfect, cool Fall day yesterday. The leaves were raining down around the pond and I just sat down and watched them for a while. I made this short little video sitting there by the pond. This little waterfall flows under this Japanese Maple tree that is in full Fall color right now. I hope it brings a little “Zen” to your day 😊

Have a GREAT day!

Can we still plant? Yes! In fact, this is the best time of the year to plant shrubs and trees!
planting salad veggies – lettuce, beets, carrots, radishes, scallions, etc. Greens too like spinach and turnips.
Can I trim and prune my shrubs and trees? Some light trimming if needed, but leave most until winter dormancy and early Spring.
one man purchased a building site lot that has sub surface springs and he now can’t build on it! Can he plant fruit trees? Quick answer, probably… Need to do more research, this might have a fix?
