Work and Wonder: New Year's in the North State Garden
I like to think that winter’s long, dark nights, its snow and driving rains (when we get them - boy, I hope we get them), and its killing frosts, provide me with absolution from the mistakes, lapses, failures and inadequacies of the previous year in the garden. The dark and cold and leaching work together to provide me with a clean slate and a fresh start. I am resolved this year to keep my garden journal up to date just a little more regularly, to catalogue my photographs a little more consistently so that they can help to complement my journal. I am resolved to get my succession plantings timed a little more accurately, and to not allow my summer vegetable garden to run such riot.
I resolve to improve just a little. I am not aiming for any mental image that I or anyone else might have of perfection, because not only does this not exist, it would be terribly boring and would only serve to squelch innovation and spontaneous garden successes. It would not leave room for the miracles of spider webs by moonlight or mushrooms in the duff beneath the oaks.
