Gardening: Weed?

I have this coming up all through my flowerbed. Can anyone tell me what it is? I can't find anything online that even looks remotely close. I live in the West Central part of Oklahoma if that means anything...

  • I added a bit of fun to my screen porch with an easy outdoor porch light!
  • I used 2 large & 3 medium grapevine balls. Two strands of white lights (50 count) with brown wires make these little orbs glow-a birch branch holds the lights and burlap ribbon hold up the branch!
  • I threaded the lights into the balls and tied them in place with garden twine to make sure the glow was uniform...
  • It's easy to get the lights inside the grapevine by gently moving the tiny vines apart.
  • Balancing a birch branch between 2 chairs, I played around with the placement of the balls (which are attached with twine) until I liked the look...
  • I ran the cord up the twine and connected it to a white extension cord that I hid between one of the loops of burlap ribbon which holds the branch. (the other end of the burlap ribbon is attached to the ceiling w/ eye hooks)
  • The light makes such a nice glow and doesn't obstruct our view during the day! 1

Easy DIY Outdoor Light!

    stakes. I use. Old forks and slip the nursery's tag between the tines. In that way I won't plant anything on top of a plant that hasn't sprouted yet in the Spring. Been there, and done that.

  • This is a simple recipe to make for your own home or to give in a jar as a great housewarming gift.  Add all of the ingredients in with water or apple cider and simmer on low for hours.  See more at http://christinasadventures.com/2012/12/simmer-potpourri-holiday-entertaining-and-gift-idea.html

Growin' Like Crazy

After a few years of trying to grow herbs in the soil, I moved them to planters on my deck. This makes them so much easier to care for and I enjoy having them right at my back door.
