365Caws is now in its 16th year of publication. If I am unable to post daily, I hope readers who love the natural world and fiberarts will seize those days to read the older material. Remember that this has been my journey as well, so you may find errors in my identifications of plants. I have tried to correct them as I discover them. Likewise, I have refined fiberarts techniques and have adjusted recipes, so search by tags to find the most current information. And thank you for following me!

Summer Spoonful
Day 266: Since discovering Osteospermum "Spoon Flower" a few years ago, it has become one of my favourite annuals. It is a prolific bloomer and although it benefits from deadheading, it will still produce dozens of flowers even if you neglect the task. Like other Osteos, it can withstand drier soil than many annuals, although in the 90-degree temperatures we've been experiencing for the last week, I am keeping the garden well-watered.
