We drove on the picturesque Sulphur Springs Drive in Pelham a few years ago during the Porsche fun run day. The road was closed due to flooding for two consecutive years. So it wasn't a surprise to see the report that it was washed out Wednesday night. Another year of missing this beautiful drive.
I keep seeing the headline on the red-and-white Canada 150 tulips that are blooming orange in some gardens. Home Hardware the major retailer that sold the bulbs in the fall says that they are "taking each individual case very seriously." I find this most entertaining. The CTV news story gets 'to the bottom' of the issue - a packaging problem not a hybridization problem. They quoted Mark Cullen, our gardening guru here in Canada. The article concludes: “In the Netherlands, orange is their national colour,” Davis said. “Maybe this is their way of getting in on Canada 150.”
We're looking at the spring version of the renovated RBG Rock Garden. I am looking forward to seeing it when the water fills the meandering pools and the fountains are in action.
