		<title>Happy St. Patrick&#8217;s Day- Go Green!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[♣    Happy St. Patrick&#8217;s Day    ♣
Shamrocks are considered a good luck symbol; representing faith, hope and love. The age-old saying: &#8220;The Luck of the Irish&#8221; with its magical mysticism just might rub off in our gardens today with a little St. Patty&#8217;s Day symbolism.
The word Shamrock comes from an Irish word meaning little clover [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=nadiaknows.com&blog=9156553&post=2445&subd=nadiaknowsgardens&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Double Delight Rose</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m excited to share this first bloom of my &#8220;Double Delight&#8221; rose today. In the past my rose gardening was a failure due to mildew from San Diego&#8217;s lingering morning fog and excess water on the leaves. Despite my past failure I decided last month to buy three varieties of rose bushes and plant them [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=nadiaknows.com&blog=9156553&post=2393&subd=nadiaknowsgardens&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>TALAVERA MEETS A FIRESTICK</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I planted this dynamic looking Euphorbia tirucalli, common name &#8220;Firestick&#8221;  in a Talavera ceramic pot matching the orange and green colors of the succulent with the colors painted onto the ceramics. Talavera pottery is made in Mexico exclusively in the State of Puebla with the same techniques used in the 16th century.

		<title>Gardening with Gnomes</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Does your garden grow better with gnomes? Garden gnomes originated in European folklore depicted wearing red hats, tunics and holding garden tools. In the 1800&#8217;s German potters made them from clay stoneware and sold them as lawn and garden ornamentation said to bring good luck, humor, wisdom and prosperity to the owner. They are whimsical [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=nadiaknows.com&blog=9156553&post=2131&subd=nadiaknowsgardens&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

We are not too excited about the turnips and radishes that are shown growing in this photo, we prefer broccoli.
