Dig It!

2012 PHILADELPHIA INTERNATIONAL
FLOWER SHOW
Hawaii
Island of Aloha
March 4-11, 2012
This year I decided to take a different tack.  I followed my nose instead of my eyes.  I walked right past the Orchidaceae, including Dendrobium, Pleurothallis and Bulbophyllum.  There is one thing you can say about a plot of Hyacinth, the smell is overwhelming.  Next door to the harbinger of Spring was a large crowd. I walked over to see what the fuss was about.

We are beginning to start cleaning up our Urban Farm on Randall's Island from yearly Winter debris.  Our numbers are not as large as City Harvest, but they speak to how far a few good plants can go.
