My garden is part of a community. It is located at Scadding Court Community Centre in Toronto, Canada. This year my plot is small. I had some strange experiences last summer with spontaneous bouts of channeling. My garden became much neglected and overridden with weeds. This year I got a smaller plot so it would be less work to maintain. Big plans where in store for this small bit of earth.
There were many seeds which I never got around to planting this year. Many seedlings died in the heat of the new greenhouse as June blazed along. I purchased many witching herbs from Alchemy-Works last winter. I still have most of the packages of seeds left to plant for next garden season.
The only 2 plants I sprouted which made it into developed plants from my Witch's Garden seed package was the Sage and Clary Sage. Clary Sage takes 2 years to bloom. Right now the hairy silver leaves are spread out in a large circular formulation. I believe am leaving this in the ground to watch what it becomes next year. More research will be needed to determine approach care for these plants over the winter.
On Sunday I planted a miniature Rose bush, purple ornamental Cabbage, and burgundy Chrysanthemums on my plot. It is my hope to create a winter garden this year. A winter garden is one which maintains it's color and looks beautiful poking up through the icy drifts of snow. Any plant which maintains color over the winter could be included in such a garden. Rose bushes have beautiful rose hips to add a splash of red to the dreary landscape of winter.
