A LAVENDER ROSE LOOKS SO GOOD WHEN IT IS COLD & SNOWY!

I always start my latest blogs out updating you on my wife's health issues. Well today I have super news. All medical tests came back negative. She still has health issues but the recent issues are resolving. My biggest fear was that cancer came back after being free of it for 17 years. But she is clear. She sees the improvement in herself with some diet changes and physical therapy. Hoping that is strong motivator to keep going and improving.

I did not get to select photographs until this morning, and I hope to get this posted today. Always much going on with me so I will be working on this post a little at a time. Sometimes I "get on a roll" and stay with it longer. We shall see. Now for photographs.

I found this rose that it does not look like I used it before. It is such a delicate color:

I wanted to share some of my winter gardening so I have more recent photos and some I took last year or so.

This first one shows some of my current early growth. In the black containers have Bok Coy and lettuce growing hydroponically. Some smaller containers that I am growing micro-greens:

The next one was taken a year or two ago and shows how big these greens can grow:

Here I picked some micro-greens (pea shoots, beet greens, and other greens:

Here is a finished salad using most of what I grew. The cheese and green olives of course came from the store:

I will close with a nice looking flower. These Petunias are grown in the Spring:

That is it for this weeks post. I am short on time but wanted to get it uploaded today. I do not like it when I feel I rushed a post, but I have a lot of work to get done this weekend. I trust each of you find something you enjoy in my post.

I am using a Canon EOS Rebel T5 for all of these photographs, except where noted.

Upvotes and resteem are always welcome. In the event anyone wants to use one of my photos please ask and give me credit.

Upvotes and resteem are always welcome. In the event anyone wants to use one of my photos please ask and give me credit. I overused my power that last two days so I am letting my power rebuild before I reply to comments and upvote them. The same goes for posts I have reviewed.

REMEMBER SPAM AND PLAGIARISM WILL LEAD TO MUTING. I added this last week because I had to mute someone for plagiarism. Please do not use what someone else has left as a comment. I do not like flagging people, but I have a long list of those that have been muted. I get a lot of comments and try to upvote them all, and it is not fair to those who left a comment or even a photo to use their words, nor is it fair to the Steemit platform. People work hard here so use your own words please.
