I've been gardening for a lifetime. I also post on GardenStew

Daniel Wachenheim: Battle Ground, Washington, United States; This blog is a garden diary combined with home research journal combined with notes for future years. Also, a few things here and there about other projects. I hope the information posted here is helpful. I don't have promotional links. I don't advertise companies or products. This blog does not make $$$. My philosophy is do-it-yourself, reduce, reuse, repurpose, create, learn, share, enjoy. Always learning. I enjoy propagating my own plants and trees, grafting, saving seeds, making hybrids. Accessible gardening is a major interest. My learning is experience, science, technology, plus traditional wisdom / practices from the past as well. I hope you enjoy and learn some useful or interesting things from my little blog.
