Just a post to let you know that I just posted THIS<\/a> to eHow.
\n( I kind-of want to help them default to another post about how ‘hardy mums’ can ‘extend the season’). So why not introduce people to exhibition mums!<\/p>\n

(I know, I know\u2026.as if average gardeners will go out and order spider mum cuttings and train them all summer long\u2026\u2026but I can dream, right? I am fatally Polyanna-ish. Besides, I take it as my personal mission to inspire people to raise their bar on what they choose to grow – dang it, someone needs to! No matter how impractical it might be!). Down with boring.<\/p>\n

So, please feel free to visit my eHow posts whenever you feel like it, and to perhaps do your social media magic with the post – particularly using the eHow ‘Was this article helpful’ button ( but yeah, only if you believe that it was helpful!).<\/p>\n

Thanks bunches!<\/p>\n

Yes,  I’ve been writing for eHow as-side from this blog – their gardening blog needed more content, and honestly, the new eHow is pretty nice, to both content creators and in content – as they have been editing and adjusting what they have, positioning authors as experts, and really raising the bar on their entire content load and database.<\/p>\n

It really helps me and even this blog if you use the ‘like’ share or “tweet’ buttons, or if you re pin my images to Pinterest,. I know that it’s a pain, and usually I don’t go for all of this social media crap, but sometimes, one just has to play the game.   If folks re post to Google+, Facebook, Twitter or Pinterest – it increases my ratings and stats – and since analytics is a numbers game, it means all sorts of good things for the future of this blog. It might even help me keep heating my greenhouse for another year!<\/p>\n

My eHow posts are HERE<\/a>.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\nThis blog does fine on its own ( ranking number 5 on Blogrank for gardening blogs) so I really connote complain – and I thank you readers who do visit every week. That helps too!<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
