Welcome!!!

If you stumbled among this site, "Evelyn’s Twigs, Thyme and Stranger Things Gardens" is a collection of journal entries that I have kept on my computer for years, and have now decided to post. The journal contains my successes and failures with my favorite selections of plants. I'm talking about more than 50 years of caring for and living with green things. Not everything is here. More of it is learned and store in my head. However, here I will share facts about each plants, my research, as well as my personal and gathered tips on their care. I was not planning to post my houseplant and backyard journals online, so editing them for errors was not a priority to me. This being the case, perhaps, one day I will correct all the spelling and grammar errors in both of them. We would not want people to think I did not know better, when I was only being lazy. Again, no apologizes. It is what it is for now.

An Update for Stabilizing a Tomato Cage for Vertical Hydroponic Use

Hello, Darlings

I didn't like the pinched look of the tomato cage when I made it triangle. My idea is to connect the stems to the stake arms once they are tall enough to drape over with some room for spreading them out, and avoid as much crowding as possible. 

The cage looks good and doesn't prevent me from removing the water tank for cleaning and refilling. 

In addition, s you can see there are some new green bean plants growing it the system now. I will keep you posted on how they are doing in the future. 

Until next time,

     Keep Growing!!!
