Well, the cluster of five nuts I’ve been tracking are some of the nuts from the ground.

Hazelnuts – Almost Ready
The cluster of hazelnuts I am tracking is almost ready …
Hazelnut Progress, continued
Phlox
We have wild phlox that is purple and we have wild phlox that is white. But every now and again we get one that is white with purple stripes, and I love those. Anya dug this one up from the field and planted it in my bee garden last year, and it is huge this year. And still has the striped flowers that I love!

Black Walnut Seedlings
A neighbor gifted us black walnut seedlings he dug up from his yard — we planted them along the East side of the end of the farm path. Another twenty years, and we’ll have some more big walnuts lining the path!

Hazelnuts – 2024
The hazelnuts are just starting to form — it looks like we’ve got nuts developing on the newer plants on the north side too. As far as propagating plants, I’ve pretty well established that dropping a woody cutting in willow water doesn’t work. Dropping a green cutting in water doesn’t work. Next, I’m going to try a green cutting in soil and air layering. I’ve found a few places online that say air layering worked … even if it looks a little odd having bundles of soil wrapped around the branches of your shrubbery.
2024 Garden – North Side
We got most of the north side of the garden planted — watermelon and tomatoes are still in the greenhouse (sprouting)
