The Return of the Ninja Gardeners

January 28, 2018 by Ogee

A few brave roses somehow survived frost, hail, and cold and were still attempting to put on a show on a foggy Friday. Such is gardening in Northern California. But the arrival of crocuses and narcissus signal – it’s time for the roses to go. Our gardeners are like ninjas; rarely seen – but they leave a trail of weeded and dead-headed beds behind as evidence of their stealth powers. Once a year, I am able to wrangle them together […]

Fragility and Resilience

January 14, 2018 by Ogee

“Life is fragile, like the dew hanging delicately on the grass, crystal drops that will be carried away on the first morning breeze.” ~  Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche Sometimes, the most fragile-looking things have the greatest resilience. A spider’s intricate web is designed to hold its maker, its prey, and a chandelier of droplets ten times its weight. This tiny frog is everywhere in the garden in the middle of winter, finding shelter and warmth under leave piles and overturned pots. […]
