Happy New Year from Snowbelt Farm!
Today we are still in the planning stages, all we can do because of winter, of a new pond system, one small pond for breeding fancy goldfish, and another pond that will house my favorite variety of Koi.....Showas. I will only keep Breeding showas in this pond, in hopes of coming up with some wonderful offspring. All my ponds are mud ponds, and all are connected in some way. All the ponds are landscaped as well, as they are part of our gardens.
Feed the chickens this morning, had one of my Rhode island reds fly down from roost and land on my head and the sit there, as if to chew me out for being late with the water and food, my chickens are spoiled and fat, and have personalities all their own.
Went on line to HVH and purchased a few more Hibiscus for my collection, a collection that is growing quickly, and will demand its own sun room very quickly. Yes you can raise tropical hibiscus in Vermont zone 4, just have to bring them in before night time temps get to cold in the fall.
Its almost time to set up my indoor lighting for seed starting, I have a bunch of seeds to get going this year, including over 500 day lilies that I hybridized myself in my gardens this year.
Happy New year everyone.........Steve
