100 POSTS AND 100 SPECIES


I appreciate all those readers who drop by once in a while, writing or not what they think. There is something to be learned when I visit other blogs. It is a matter of writing skills, photography, concepts, ideas,  information and/or opinion.  If what you read here in the Puertorican context,  displeases you, too bad. There are 150 million to pick from.


After 100 posts the compromise is still here, with 100 species to match below.

I perceive gardening as a creative, critical activity that should be focused in terms of nature, flora and fauna, not the self, the I.  Be willing to take the heat or get out of the kitchen.

It seems that the average islander is a happy clam in the mud, regarding Nature, the environment, ecology and gardening, to name a few.
In addition those who should know better in terms of academics, position, regarding these issues show consistent feeble minds at every opportunity.
I try not to. Abrasive and blunt.
That is the way.

Time to go. Apaga i vamonoh.

  1. Amigo Cajan fue muy agradable volver a saber de Ud., he aprovechado para ponerme al dia con algunos de sus interesantes e instructivos (y criticos, de la buena) temas. Tal como vio entre mudanza y trabajo me tiene un poco alejado de "este mundo", pero ya tratare de darme la vuelta de vez en cuando. El nuevo hogar tiene gran variedad de plantas (http://juan57ar.blogspot.com/2010/09/visitantes-del-patio.html), por lo que tratare de mantenerlas y aprender algo del tema, pues solo se contemplarlas y maravillarme de sus bellezas, pero soy un ignorante en cuanto a detalles tecnicos/botanicos, pero creo que sabre darle el mantenimiento adecuado. Gracias por sus buenos deseos y espero este bien junto a su familia.

  2. Be willing to take the heat and get in the garden? That is the truth and the whole truth. You surely need to get dirty and sweaty while gardening to do it right.

  3. Regarding the heat, sweat, I agree in essence, there is no other way.

    But as one gets older with knees, elbows, fading away, low maintenance gardens are a most. With less heat and sweat as result. Thanks for the visit.
