My garden is
growing very well. I don’t remember if I told you that I had decided to plant
half with cutting flowers. My heart is not into growing vegetables. I would
gladly by vegetables at the local farmers markets but armfuls of flowers?
Probably not.
So I took three
garden beds and planted poppies, phlox, delphinium, sweet peas, zinnias and
daisies.
The daisies are
such a happy flower. I hate to cut them now but will have plenty of flowers to
share.
The garden
already is more colorful. The poppies give a sweet little pop of red
My weeding all
summer will be a happier event.
My bottle tree
looks great but needs some paint. My dear sister found it for me and it is
beautiful. We planted it on Christmas Day!! But the first rain, turned all the arms
rusted. I hate the rust. I will sand each arm and paint them black.
I did buy some
blue bottles for it, but will fill the tree with wine bottles from this summer.
Get ready girls…. Wine is on the menu!!
I do have
cabbage, peppers, herbs, and four different kinds of tomatoes planted. So
technically it is still a vegetable garden.
I hope you enjoy
a look at the early garden. More to come!!!1
that is a nice idea with the cut flowers..sorry I haven't been around much lately...just not enough hours in the day...
