The tale of Robin Wood II: This bird has flown - Anne Boulton
The Tale of Robin Wood takes a surprising turn as the young fledgling develops a strong sense of self and some decently splayed tail feathers. It’s been a whole week, and this bird ain’t shy for nothin’.

The tale of Robin Wood - Anne Boulton
It started with the soccer ball escaping down the hill towards the wood pile. Or maybe it began with the neighbour calling to complain about that precarious branch. Or perhaps it was when the arborists arrived and sawed off the offending limb.

Building a relationship with bugs - Anne Boulton
In my last column, I wrote about ridding your yard of earwigs, and as a last straw, I mentioned using DE and Boric Acid. I feel that these two items deserve more than a mention. DE, as it is colloquially known, is called diatomaceous earth.

The earwigs are coming! - Anne Boulton
Dealing with earwigs can, at best, be unpleasant. At its worst, it can be a nightmare of science-fiction proportions. While they aren’t brain-eaters, entering through the “ear,” they are still unpleasant and a challenge to control.

Taking a bite out of nature - Anne Boulton
So you’re lost in the woods. While that totally sucks, all is not “lost.” Right at your very feet are all kinds of edibles that could sustain you for a good while before you need to panic or resort to Lord of the Flies-type behaviour.

Rain gardens look good and work hard - Anne Boulton
My brother asked me how he could give his very wide, very depressed gravel ditch at the front of his country home a more aesthetic appeal. After some thought, it occurred to me that a rain garden might be just the thing.

The many faces of mulching - Anne Boulton
I’m a mulcher. Like my grandmother and mother before me, mulching runs deep in my veins. These ladies taught me a thing or two about the thriftiness of mulching well.

Tips from the Masters - Anne Boulton
We asked and they told! The Master Gardeners of Sudbury sent us their most useful advice on everything from Lily Beetles (who love Asiatic Lilies, not daylilies) to goutweed. I am critical of a plant’s performance mid-season.

Taking matters into your own hands
Remember last week when I wrote about asking the Masters of the Garden any type of question? There are other ways to go about securing answers, if reaching out to someone isn’t your cuppa.

Never stop learning to grow
I’ve been out “in the field,” as they say, doing a heap of landscaping all over the city. It’s been something. Every time I’m out, I learn something new.
