How could anyone not enjoy a day that gives us an excuse to say ‘thank you’ to the people who have given so much to us?

This week is also Teacher Appreciation Week, and is another perfect opportunity to express our thanks for everything teachers do.

And while we’re on the subject, and even though there’s not a national holiday to compel me to say it, thank you for being a part of Incahoots! We couldn’t do it without you.
Peace,
Brian

In our Spring Newsletter there is a bit about all the new Kelly Rae products that are now available. I thought I had done a reasonably thorough job, but then even more stuff arrived. You’ll now find a variety of totes, bags and purses with Kelly Rae’s unique art.

Available sizes 22 oz jars, 12 oz Perfect Pillars, 7 oz Tumblers, votive, and samplers.

As luck would have it, you’ll find both the traditional green (Oxalis regnellii) and the stunning purple (Oxalis triangularis) here at Incahoots. The green variety features brilliant green leaves and delightful white blooms. The purple has dark leaves with a deep rose pattern and pink blooms.
An interesting feature of Shamrocks is that the leaves move in response to light levels, opening in high ambient light (during the day) and closing at low light levels (at night).

Last minute addition – we have a small number of Oxalis ‘Copper Glow’ available also. They are picture in the photo above with the purple shamrocks.-

We’ve already got blooming Pansies, Primroses and Ranunculus in a rainbow of colors. The Tete-a-tete daffodils are basking in the occasional bit of sunshine – including a new white variety (although I would describe it as more of a soft, pale yellow). There are bright Carnations in red and happy Hyacinths in a brilliant shade of blue.
Janet has also ordered up starts of lettuce and sweet peas, perfect for us gardeners who like instant gratification.
And if you really want to start from scratch, Renee’s Garden Seeds are now available. The big news is that this year about half the rack features Organic seeds.

Abundance ~ So much love!

On a cold day last week the sun was illuminating the spider webs and the frost made everything glisten. Here are a couple images from that magical morning.
