"From December to March, there are for many of us three gardens -
the garden outdoors,
the garden of pots and bowls in the house,
and the garden of the mind's eye."
- Katherine S. White
Yes, even in the winter, we find time and ways to garden. What is your favorite house plant? I have a large green leaved ficus that is may fav. And yesterday, I saw a gorgeous white with dark pink edged Christmas cactus. It was so pretty, very striking.
Welcome December ..... Can you believe it? The year has passed by so very quickly here at Oakville Farm. Daylilies are resting the cold ground, saving energy for a 2012 growing season! It is below freezing here this AM. Our weather station, OFW, tells the story. The thermometer on the back stoop shows 29 degrees, anyway ya look at it, it is quite cool!
Remember that daylilies are a great perennial. And your gardening list for 2012 should certainly have a daylily or two that is a must have. We will be back online soon, so 
keep those daylily lists handy. Just to "wet your whistle" for daylilies, here is a cute cultivar, August Moon. An early bloomer.
Daylily August Moon
Hope you have a good day and until next time, Happy Gardening.
