Monday Morning Brain Teasers 02 15 10


Annie’s Monday morning brain teasers are all about the color blue today. Whether blue is your favorite color or you are feeling a bit blue because you have to work on Presidents Day, we can take heed in what Vincent van Gogh said about this color. “There is no blue without yellow and without orange.” The true or false answers slated for tomorrow’s post, Tuesdays with Annie.

Blueberries are acid-loving plants.

Blueberries should be pruned in May.

Blueberries have a deep root system.

The best time to plant blueberry bushes in the Northeast is early spring, after the threat of a hard frost.

Planting more than one variety of blueberry is important for cross pollination.

The inspirational quote of the day is an old Chinese Proverb. “The miracle is not to fly in the air, or to walk on the water, but to walk on the earth.” Remember this saying as you delve into Monday. Annie

About Me

My Photo
My gardening influence starts with my Italian grandmother and mother. Their passion for gardening and fresh food has led me to my love for the earth. My Dad taught me my appreciation for nature and my border collies keep me grounded, staying in contact with it daily, whether I want to or not. My husband, Greg's passion for agriculture, horticulture, naturalistic landscape designs and travel have kept us busy in our time together. It's hard to work with and live with your husband but we manage to do it and still find laughter. I think it is because we love food, gardening and nature.
