Here is the pile of mulch that was delivered a few weeks ago...
It's finally gone!
Here are a few of our pots
Here is the update on our "consumables"
My veggie patch: sugar snaps, beets, carrots, green beans
Rhubarb, blueberries, tomatoes, eggplant, and herbs (lettuce and swiss chard have not yet appeared).
fig tree
red raspberry bushes
I love zinnias
and coleus and celosia are my favorites
It's amazing how drastically our house can change in just a few short months!
ps...I never finished house-cleaning the inside, and school is over on Wednesday! Oh, and I'm still waiting to drop those last ten pounds, too (just thought you should know).
Kirs: I think you're getting hooked on the gardening thing!! Good for you!!! Summer lasts such a short time-enjoy the time outside while you can (and before it looks like that snowy pic again!!) I see the rhubarb is looking Great!!!! Did you get that little gift we sent over for you? Hope you can use it!!!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see you guys next month!

I love the rhubarb cookbook! thanks so much-
ReplyDeleteshould I cut off the rhubarb to the ground?
I'm not sure if I'm going to be a successful gardener or not, just planted a few things and we'll see how they do!
see ya soon!

I just let mine die back later in the summer-as the ones underneath wilt-pull them out-if you get seed heads on the tops-pull those out, but just let it die back by itself this first year--looks like you'll have an awesome patch next year!!
ReplyDeleteI so hear you on the "I'm not an outdoor girl" thing. I cannot believe the difference between your spring and winter shots.
ReplyDeleteGood on you for giving gardening a go! Your vegies and herbs look terrific!
