    Free Trash, You Pay Shipping

    In the course of doing fall stuff at the nursery, weeding, dividing, repotting, etc. I was left with a bit of two very nice NA native bog plants which make very nice cp companions in an outdoor temperate bog. I was told to just throw it out, but figured someone would enjoy it, so I'm offering...

    Pretty Weeds

    I figured I'd post a pic of some of the "pretty weeds" that flourish in my bogs, the containers and the in-ground. The red one in the center came as a hitchhiker with a Sarr from Meadowview a few years back. It gets small 5 petal yellow flowers in the summer and turns scarlet in the fall. The...

    Who Knew?

    I've been dealing with Azolla caroliniana for decades, either growing it or trying not to grow it, but this is a new one on me! I have some in a large outdoor aquarium which is part of my rainwater storage set up that I grow water plants and breed fish in over the summer. I often use the water...

    Another walk in the bog.

    Went back out to the local bog I visited a few weeks ago. This time, I wanted to get some good pics of some of the other bog plants, and also search for other Drosera. So far, I have only been able to spot Drosera rotundifolia at this bog. It may be that the other natives (D. intermedia, D...

    Bog Trip - Southern New Hampshire - August, 2014

    This weekend we visited an Atlantic white cedar bog in Southern NH. This location sits in a depression right smack in the middle of suburbia. The area is under threat of disappearing due to the encroaching red maples and grey birches that are invading the bog at an alarming rate. The trees have...

    Wild CPs in Michigan

    Took me a few tries to track down local bogs. Found many swamps the first few times. Eventually, I found a bog bordering a small lake (more like a pond, in my opinion) and went for a short walk: It was really too easy - the boardwalk goes straight up to the bog, and Sarracenias were visible...
