Do you know what this is?
Did it snow in Florida...
Last week, these ferns had grown to 4 and 5 feet tall, I yanked them all out of the ground to let them start over again.. they had taken over the bucket garden. The photo's up top are the roots of the ferns that grew close to our pool pump. they are covered in Diatomaceous Earth... link provided if you want to know what it is made of.
We just call it pool dirt when we pay 20.00 for 25 pounds and it goes in the pool filter and we MUST have it...
Now YOU know it makes pretty snow crystals on roots.. also creates MadSnapper Fodder
Did you know....One out of four people in this country is mentally imbalanced. think of your three closest friends. If they seem OK, then YOU are the ONE...
Are you thinking of ME?? humm? are you????

Well, I'm certainly not an imbalanced one. haha.
No comment!! =)
Best,

Glad it's not snow, Sandra, as I am counting on spring heading its way north and not winter heading south. ;)
I have never heard of Diatomaceous earth before. Fascinating link, thank you. That last bit cracked me up!
I had not idea what that was...and no didn't think of you, but was afraid you were thinking of me on that last. LOL
MS YOU ARE THE OF THE PACK OF IMBALANCED SENIORS BUT THAT IS OK YOU ARE IN GOOD COMPANY MOM IS RIGHT BESIDE YOU NECK AND NECK.
WE DID NOT KNOW ABOUT THE CRYSTALS...
VERY PRETTY
HUGS MADI AND HER UNSTABLE ASSISTANT
I'm laughing at Madi's comment, unstable assistant...lol!
I knew that wasn't snow. lol
the ferns are pretty and I remember their stems and roots are very strong.
it snow yesterday at dinner, it was so pretty. we're in good shape today. :)
I did not believe this until I read about it, I have never heard of it. It is the remnants of crushed living somethings... It is Florid snow!
Did you know it is Fences today?
i know folks use that stuff to get rid of fleas. and i laughed at the 3 out of 4.
snow in florida, ha!
i have never heard of diatomaceous earth before...very interesting-thanks!
and i was literally LOL at the last one! haha
Love your "snowy fern".
You always amaze me. You can make something out of nothing.
I truly love how your mind works..
Have a super day Sandra.
Gosh I don't want to think that I am the unstable one, but I probably am. Have a great day!
Silly girl! You were probably thinking of that crazy women up in New York!!!!!! Love those ferns and it was time to cut them back anyways. I love ferns.
When we first put our pool in (in our last house) they talked us into the Diatomaceous Earth system but it didn't work out well for us and had to switch over to chlorine. That is very interesting that it is on the roots of your ferns.
It just looked like normal frost until I remembered where you lived. I always have a bag on hand here for mites on the goats or chickens if I need it. Great stuff.
It's also used to get rid of many garden pests. It seems like the crystals just cut them to pieces after they ingest this stuff.
Hmmm I think we are all a bit off balanced...pretty fern
How intersting. I thought it was some type of lichen.
As for unbalanced....I plead the 5th.
Haha I saw that about the disturbed people on Facebook. It's me. I'm the disturbed one.
I learned something new today :)
Well, it has to be the other 3, I know it's not me. lol! Wow, that many? That really is a disturbing thought.
I should have known that was from pool dirt. We used that in ours until Wade went out and bought a sand pump
No of course I wasn't thinking you were the mentally imbalance one. I knew it was me....lol
I didn't know what it was, but you may start a trend! ;)
It does look like snow or ice on a plant. Glad to hear it isn't. I have heard of Diatomaceous Earth, the food grade variety is good for killing fleas on pets or carpet.
