May 15th I planted all my
tiny little vegetable plants
in my new raised planters
that my wonderful husband made for me.
In a month these little guys grew so nicely...
I've planted....tomatoes, celery,
tons of parsley, peppers, several types of lettuce,
spinach, kale, chard,
brussels sprouts, sweet pea pods,
cucumbers, radishes, lots of basil,
beans, strawberries and carrots.
I love the lush green rows of leaf veggies...
I planted little bunches of flowers in the veggie
bed to add little sparks of color
and prettiness.
Then a few solar lights here and there!
I swear you can see the tomatoes growing!
At sunset I love how the pine trees cast
long shadows across the lawn.
And I finally have my greenhouse up!
So thrilled!
beds around the greenhouse
to go for my herb garden
waiting for some of the sprinkler heads
to be moved.
It's so pretty I don't want to get it dirty.
We planted a few aborviteas around the deck.
This area is still not completed but
they needed to get in the ground to get
the roots established before winter.
I wanted them differently placed but our yard is a
maze of electrical lines, sewage lines. It's
crazy all the things we have to work around!
We have had lots of slate stone delivered.
It will be used
around our pond and landscaping.
walk out basement.
Our goal is to emulate this....
and a gurgling fountain... just steps outside
my pottery studio. That is the plan and the
future dream!
So the next step will be having concrete
patio done and pond dug!
Did I mention we have only been in
this house 7 months!
So much has be accomplished
thanks to my husbands hard work
Sooo Grateful!
I get to do the fun stuff
like planting flowers!
