garden update



new additions:
rosemary (from missy)
fresh mulch (from mommy)
lavender (started from seed)
2 morning glories (from Bloomer's)

we wanted something pretty to climb the outside of the trellis, so i potted two morning glory plants - pearly gates and milky way. the milky way is already producing pretty blooms.


the eggplant has also bloomed


yanked out the first baby carrot (a little too early)


and the lone beastly beet is more than ready to be yanked

  4. granny - thank you. john and i are talking about where to put the next sfg...so exciting! i want to make a longgg one along the side of my house. we'll see. i'm having a similar problem with bugs. they're eating all my basil! i hear basil repels house flies, yet i see flies sitting on my basil constantly! glad your pretty pansies are doing well =)

    jenandberry and A - thank you! if i can grow a garden, anyone can. when i was teaching we would try to grow beans and flowers, and every year i would kill them (over/underwatering). it's amazing these plants are still alive! i atrribute it to the mel's mix - he says with his mix you can't overwater. i believe it!
