There is No clear distinction between the two types of garden. Planting wise I have never heard of there being a distinction.

Much in Little: food production in a small space
Thank you!
It appears to me most convenient if one applies compost, rockdust and seaweed concurrently if different areas demand different treatments.
But what if one area entails all three treatments? Might three treatments be managed over ...

The possible consideration of corrib as "stony" causes me to consider rock gardens.
Does it make a difference in its compositional plantings whether or not a garden gets called a rock garden or a stone garden?
Internet searches harvest both ...

10 Symbols in Jack and the Beanstalk
His way to the market is a test. He is cheated. He donesn't get money for the cow. Just a fist of beans. In normal circumstances this would be perceived as an epic failure.

Children are at this stage (Jack acts like a spoiled kid at the beginning) don't act as the society expects from their gender.

10 Symbols in Jack and the Beanstalk
BW drawings are by Robert Anning Bell.
The first color illustration is by Walter Crane, the second by Arthur Rackham. Both of them are already presented at Wizzley, R. Anning Bell is still on my to-do list.

10 Symbols in Jack and the Beanstalk
The first symbol, Cow, intrigues me with the "innocence" aspect identified in that symbol's last sentence.
Is it somewhat surprising, upon reflection, that Jack itinerates to and from the market with the cow and then with the money without ...

None in Ireland, but I have visited two in Wales, St Winefride's well and one in Pembrokeshire, whose name I have forgotten.

Cunnamulla - Premium Destination Outback
Ha ha, we should pay you to come over here and quickly smarten us up.
I will also write an article about the gift shop as it has a little thriving incentive.
Yes, you can buy local handmade gifts and paintings.
Shhh! I plan to create giftware ...

Cunnamulla - Premium Destination Outback
Hey Dendriu,
Last year, I had an exhibition at that Art Gallery, https://bluethumb.com.au/jo-murphy. It was successful, and many works have been sold, but they can still be seen at the gallery linked above.
This year, I will have another ...

Thank you!
It sounds so environmentally and soil-wise healthy to use compost, rockdust and seaweed.
Would you preferentially use liquid or meal seaweed?
Would you use all three treatments concurrently or according to staggered schedules?

The Shrine that Survived the Reformation
This is related because about holy wells but somewhat unrelated because about Ireland.
Recently, online searches brought up Our ancient landscapes: Holy wells in Ireland, by Am Chomhairle Oidhreachta (The Heritage Council) in 2023.
That ...

Cunnamulla - Premium Destination Outback
The fourth paragraph under the third subheading, Parklands in Cunnamulla, describes the information center as having a gift shop.
Might local-appeal purchasables be there?
(Also, if the free coffee, tea, water taste super-great, might they be ...
