Welcome!

Happy Spring!

I love Spring, it means new beginnings and fresh starts! And best of all, gardening! Can't help but to get excited about what my seedlings will bear. Yet, believe it or not, I've been gone and busy and have not yet started my garden for the year. Time to get started!

Part of getting stared this year was creating this blog, geared toward people interesting gardening in a big city, or just some stories! I was surprised to find out that I know lots of people who, upon hearing that I like to grow veges on my balcony, were also interested in this but didn't have a clue where to start...maybe here's the place for that.

I also spend a good part of the year growing, tending to, thinking about, and enjoying my balcony garden, and hope that my stories inspire (or at least somewhat entertain) you!


As always, I am up for trying new things.

One new challenge for my garden this year - building or getting some sort of trellis for my squash plants to climb up. Haven't attempted this yet, and need some ideas of how to build it and secure it to my cement wall.

At best, the squash will be sharing this wall with some pole beans...at worst it all falls apart or they get in a fight and kill each other...

Take a look at my past gardens to see how they've turned out the past few years and what I've attempted.

Feel free to visit some of my picks of gardening on the web as well for more inspiration!


Also important...feel free to contact me at bhornk (at) yahoo (dot) com if you have anything you'd like me to post about or have anything you'd like to say!

Enjoy!
