  1. So right! RT @plantweb: Good design = less maintenance - Summit Daily News. http://chilp.it/?862c15
  2. Have you noticed the poplars and aspens turning yellow already? It's too soon! A lot of the green ones have that end of summer dullness.
  3. Pls excuse x-posting but I'm very excited about this! RT @greengaljo: here is the link to our green wall announcement. http://bit.ly/2mgRO0
  4. More than wine? RT @plantweb: ... Napa Valley Register: Martha Walker Native Habitat Garden a living laboratory... http://buzzup.com/b57h
  5. RT @chicagobotanic Michael Pollan lecture celebrates opening of Plant Science Center. Free public opening events too. http://bit.ly/4DTwj
  6. RT @plantweb: World’s First Tower Made of Hundreds of Living Trees - Inhabitat.com: Building the structure ... http://buzzup.com/b3lk
  7. Aww <3 RT @SusanAppleHurst ...Son who, at 5, claimed I loved my garden more than him, just asked for a houseplant for his 20th birthday.
  8. Out photographing a secret garden at a neighbourhood school last night. Working to get the true colour of the purple-blue clematis to show.
  9. Thanks to the late spring, buffalo bean is still blooming. Native prairie plant. http://tinyurl.com/mxdxmr Thermopsis rhombifolia.
  10. @BHGJustin has the most beautiful floral Twitter homepage. That's what I'm looking forward to this summer. Flowers.
  11. One day of sunshine and a few plants in the garden are wilting. Buck up, guys. It's going to get a lot hotter. (Rhubarb, this means you).
  12. What's the #1 most planted tree in Calgary? At the genus level, it must be spruce or aspen / poplar, I'm guessing. Anyone know?
  13. Astonished to see Trollius priced over $17 at garden centre. Buried mine in over-enthusiastic mulching last fall. Hope it comes through.
  14. Wonder what the 30- and 50-year visions for the memorial forest in Fish Creek Park are. Does anyone know what kind of plants are planned?
  15. The Dandelion is a floral Artful Dodger, a tough and cheery urchin popping up out of nowhere. Harmless, just a little ragged and unloved.
  16. Must find a nice plant avatar that says "Calgary" and plants. The Tower is lovely but not exactly green!
  17. The little cherry blossoms are trying so hard not to get washed off by today's cold, almost icy rain. Hang in there Nanking, old buddy. ;-)
  18. From Calgary Plants blog - AmurCherry - popular garden tree http://tinyurl.com/4jsc9t
  19. thrilled that @greatplanthunt from RBG Kew is following. This inspires me to blog more about Calgary Plants. I love Kew ;-)
  20. A new avatar with plants in it may come eventually. Calgary doesn't have a single plant that's as iconic as the Calgary Tower, though.
