Rare Tour of Cactus and Succulent Collection | Bren Haas

In this post I share my rare cactus and succulents growing in Ohio. These are plants that will not survive without protections from winter in the north.

This is a photo I took (and edited) from a trip to Ireland a while back. During the Christmas season I often think of these two I met in a side alley in Limerick. They were so nice - I could listen to them all day. When they found out I was from America they wanted to chat about Bob Dylan. (giggle) Some where I have a recording of them singing and I will try and post it later. The gent with the guitar in hand walked me to the book store down the street to show me where to find their CD for sale. I just wanted to post this throw back while I was taking a break and thinking about this. #merrychristmas #throwbackthursday #Ireland #travelphotography #irish #santa #artsy https://www.instagram.com/p/CXhG98oN1Gq/?utm_medium=tumblr

This image I took to do a review of the new Christmas Pillow Covers I just ordered is so cute I may just use it as a Christmas card! This little fellow has a few different names... he usually comes when I call him Maggie. I thought he was a girl kitty for the longest time until one day.. well... anyways... I still call him Maggie. He is my husbands favorite out of the litter from this summer. I share about the kittens - and the covers if you are interested in seeing a video review on my website at : https://brenhaas.com/christmas-throw-pillow-cover-review/ #gardening #amazon #review #kitty #caturday #christmas #homedecor #homedecor #ohio #brenhaas #christmas #christmasdecor #amazonfinds https://www.instagram.com/p/CXMWoV5sgKG/?utm_medium=tumblr

My little get away… the sun was out for a few hours early so my time in the dome this late afternoon was nice and cozy. Smells like spring with a few of my citrus plants blooming. This is my space that I am forever thankful for. 🌸 #greenhouse #greenhouselife #dome #geodesicdome #winteriscoming #autumnleaves #homemade https://www.instagram.com/p/CWwy90JNNlu/?utm_medium=tumblr

Yummy! My 13 pound turkey in the oven roaster turned out perfect!!! I can’t wait to slice into homemade bread the day after for the traditional cold turkey sandwich. We kept it simple this year and I made up the basic green bean casserole, stuffing, gravy and sweet corn from the local farmers market. I hope everyone has a fantastic day! #thanksgiving #turkey #meal #brenhaas #leftovers https://www.instagram.com/p/CWwMK9Ov3RR/?utm_medium=tumblr

Beautiful day .. the dome is all ready for winter gardening. New strips on outside and inside layer plastic is up. There’s cabbage, onions and celery waiting outside to go in. The weather has been amazing outside so it’s made it easy to get things ready for an Ohio winter.

Other wise known as the Nippon, the Montauk daisy plant is one of my favorites this time of year. Showy white blooms on this daisies from midsummer to frost. Their foliage is thick, dark green and lightly scented. I may end up moving just to give it more space to really grow tall. In the photo collection below I show are gorgeous the plant is during the early autumn season. Read more about this plant and check out my video at the blog: https://brenhaas.com/montauk-daisy-review/ ( or just click over to BrenHaas.com to find more creative plants to grow year-round. ) Thanks for checking out my post today! #gardening #autumn #montaukdaisies #da #dailyaffirmations #autumncolors #ohio #landscapeideas #flowers #bloomingnow https://www.instagram.com/p/CU2_3K8sAg7/?utm_medium=tumblr

This plant was so much fun to grow during the last 2 growing seasons. I started a few from seed with ease. On my website today I share a vlog highlighting what the Pot-A-Peno Jalapeno look like growing indoors and after a long summer in full sun. Testing plants to their limits is one of my favorite things to do. I learn so much from seeing what a plant will do in various conditions. This plant produces amazing little jalapeno peppers that are perfect for appetizers, salsas and other favorite dishes. I love slicing them up to serve on crackers with cheese. I hope you will stop by my website and check out more photos and video today at https://brenhaas.com/pot-a-peno-jalapeno-plants/ #review #blogger #ohio #peppers #minaturegardening #vegetables #jalapeno ##potapeño #potapenopepper #gardenchat #gardening #brenhaas #video #4k https://www.instagram.com/p/CUu3jSCL1Wa/?utm_medium=tumblr

Japanese Anemone Windflower 🌸 I am finally taking this off my list to write about on the website.

Surrounded by beautiful hostas and a few new additions to this part sun garden the bees zoom around enjoying the flowers. Check out the video that shows how this plant makes the space sing in late summer to autumn on my website today! link: https://brenhaas.com/japanese-anemone-windflower/ Thank you for taking the time to check this out friends! #perennials #gardening #autumncolor #pink #easytogrow #gardenchat #brenhaas #blogpost #vlog #howtogarden #flowers #floweringplants #ohio https://www.instagram.com/p/CT2rcAGL_VW/?utm_medium=tumblr

Really bummed… my 12 foot tall volunteer sunflower ‘tree’broke over during the last heavy down pour we just had. I am so upset but hoping I can take the blooms that had begun to open and save those seeds to grow again next year! The center of these are so cool! 🌸 #sunflowers #sunflower #garden #blooms #flower #fridayvibes #fridaythe13th #ohio #rain #bouquet #gardenchat https://www.instagram.com/p/CSiFepbrmXb/?utm_medium=tumblr

Just took this photo of my bestest garden walk buddy ever! Oliver loves walking about and sniffing the blooms. He will take a sniff and look at me for approval. (giggle) Such a silly puppy. This afternoon were were out in the heat playing with my old school Nikon D90 with a 35mm lens on. Talk about a fun adventure... really! I've been using my iPhone camera so much I forgot how much fun it really is to look through the camera lens and focus... its like Christmas morning viewing the images on my PC! I hope you all have a wonderful day and are ready for the best week ever! Be sure to show me some love on this post with a like or thumbs up. I would really love it if you stop by my website to see whats going on as well!
