Those Autumn Crocuses!

November 3, 2020 By Carol Michel 4 Comments

"Whoa, Nellie," I said to myself. "Those crocuses are sure multiplying and making a nice display in late autumn."And indeed they are.I assure you that I didn't plant that many autumn crocuses which could mean only one thing.Garden fairies here!  We are garden fairies and we are pleased and chuffed to bits that Carol noticed how many crocuses we managed to make bloom this late in the year.For a while, we thought the rain was going to wash out our big display, but then a nice day came along … [Read more...] about Those Autumn Crocuses!

Garden Fairies See and Tell

August 19, 2020 By Carol Michel 2 Comments

 Garden fairies here!How do you like what Florene and Flora did to these zinnias?  They are quite proud of how they made the colors fade on the petals. We would love to tell people what variety of zinnias these are but once again, Carol disappoints as she no longer has the seed packets. Nor did she make a list of the zinnia varieties she planted.And the writing on the plastic labels she used to mark where she planted each variety of zinnias has faded to the point she can just … [Read more...] about Garden Fairies See and Tell

July 20, 2020 By Carol Michel 1 Comment

Garden fairies here. We are garden fairies and we have decided to post again since we have not posted in a while and also Carol has decided that there should be more frequent posts on this blog than in the past little bit so here we are on our usual Sunday evening, doing our part. However, Carol isn't going to let this post get published until Monday morning because she has got in her head that posting every other day is enough and she already posted yesterday, without our approval we should … [Read more...] about Garden Fairies Discuss a Fairy Garden (and other stuff)

Garden Fairies Discuss What’s Going On

July 1, 2020 By Carol Michel 6 Comments

Garden fairies here. We are garden fairies and we have not posted in quite a while and we know people are clamoring to hear from us so we have decided to break our silence but first... Let us do a collect face-palm over what Carol wrote on the Instagram with a picture of dill flowers. She wrote, and we can barely repeat it, "Dill is a big deal in the veg garden." Ugh. Where does she come up with drivel like that about dill being a big deal in the vegetable garden? We are garden fairies and … [Read more...] about Garden Fairies Discuss What’s Going On

Garden Fairies Provide an Update

May 23, 2020 By Carol Michel 2 Comments

Garden fairies here. We are garden fairies and we want to report that as we write this a big thunderstorm is rolling through so we thought we would just come inside and take care of some blog business and provide a decent update on the goings-on around here. Normally at this point, we'd tell you how lazy Carol has been, and how if she doesn't get busy planting, well, things are not going to grow very well.  But we have to say, she's at least planted out the tomatoes and peppers and … [Read more...] about Garden Fairies Provide an Update
