Gardener's World

Today I learned that Gardeners' World is on it's 54th season. It first aired in 1968 on BBC Television 1. We just started watching the series likely because of working on our garden and yard.

I updated my Garden notes page 2 because I'm trying to remember the names of all of the plants. If I remember correctly from the episode last night, there are over 500 plant families and 300,000 species with millions named. I think I'll just shoot for learning all of the ones in my yard.

After watching other folks tend to their gardens, I decided to order some new sheers and gloves yesterday. I got poison ivy on my arm clearing out some natural area because I'm worried the new pup will get into everything. I'm meeting with a tree guy today about an unhealthy Oak.

My father has about a quarter acre garden and the older I get the more I also just want to work in the yard. I know now that I've got plenty of seasons of Gardeners' World and an almost endless amount of knowledge to keep me occupied.
