first perfect little pink bloom on my Olivia Austin rose bush. Am I boring everyone with my gardening yet? My counselor said I should throw myself into gardening if it helps with my CPTSD and that is exactly what I’ve done, much to the thrill of my spouse. Lol. #gardening #roses #DavidAustin
@holli I for one could never be bored by gardening, especially when it comes with described photos. My favorite thing on Mastodon is all the nature photos I can actually appreciate.
@greengaybles am I doing a good job describing my photos? How can I do better? My mom is blind and gardens by touch and it blows my ever-loving mind!!
@holli Sorry this reply is so late, but I think you're doing a great job. I like when people give a description that actually tells me what the thing in the photo looks like, instead of just saying what it is. I don't always know what a thing looks like even if I recognize it by name, so details are nice.
I'm a very bad gardener lol, but not because I can't see. I just have ADHD + depression and I frequently forget to water my plants until they die. I try again every year though, and I'm confident that I'll eventually get it right.
@greengaybles that is very helpful. my mom was an art teacher and I totally get the describe it and don’t say what it is. Thank you!!
You should get the pots I have that just use strings to water African violets as they need it. I add water maybe once a week - maybe even two. And they don’t like to be fussed with or touched. So easy!
