Water Hyacinth

This year, the water in the containers froze many times.
And the water hyacinths are about to wither.

Freezing is the harshest condition for plants.
When water freezes, it expands and breaks the cell walls.
Since water hyacinths are floating aquatic plants, in places where the surface water freezes, their roots are destroyed, making it almost impossible for them to survive the winter.

Therefore, I think that developing salt-tolerant plants is a shortcut to developing cold-tolerant plants.

Lettuce

There is a proverb that says, 'A fool repeats one thing.'
Recently, I have begun to think that this might be a reverse phenomenon of a serious powerful civilization.

If one survives by continuing to do just one thing, that is ideal.

Lettuce is really tough.
Of course, I haven’t forgotten the coffee grounds cover to prevent algae.

Schneewittchen

I pruned the roses.
When I remove the withered branches, they have new leaves, stems, and buds.

This pruning must be done in the cold, otherwise, they will wither.

This winter, she has continued to bloom without resting.
So, I am worried about her.
