One of my highlights at this year's show has been the 'Art in the Garden'. As you wander around the showground you come across a variety of work from fibreglass cows to steel, pine and charcoal sculptures, as well as more traditional artwork, using willow and oak. moorcroft.jpgNot to be outdone however, many garden designers have used art in their show gardens. The Moorcroft Natural Woman Garden incorporates a handcrafted Moorcroft tile featuring the garden's plants, bees and butterflies. There's even more artwork from designers who are showcasing their work here. leaping_hare.jpgOne of my favourites is by an artist who has created leaping hares from twisted, plastic-coated wire - he's re ally managed to inject movement into his pieces. I'd love to take one home but I can't afford the price tag.

Flower That Have a Circle Purple...



Without intense care no harvest. Normally at least a daily inspection with hands on is needed. Every few days a more accurate care and control to hand select / remove snails or remove larger weeds that might cover up the strawberry plants. The plant needs lots of hot sunshine during the period between blossom and strawberry harvest.
Small weeds and grass actually would be beneficial to have between the plants. Most farmers lack to courage to let all the small weeds and grass survive. As you can see on most of the pictures here, the fields are usually completely cleaned up from all other growth.
Here in Trinidad most strawberry fields are sprayed regularly, weekly or more often with chemicals - fungicide and pesticide or as seen here, the toxic chemicals are added to the flooding water used for irrigation once or several times a week.
In true mixed culture as common at home in private garden, there is absolutely NO need for any chemicals of any kind nor for any fertilizer! Strawberries are rugged plants and survive / prosper easily all year if planted amidst all other flowers and plants of your organic garden. Just see how nature does it - wild strawberries grow in wild grass and forest without any chemicals or fertilizer.
