Not one moment of the day was wasted yesterday.
The first– truly warm, sunshine filled day…after the longest Winter.
Yes, I’ll have another–thank you.
A Day In The Garden
Tag: greenhouse
Working in the greenhouse
Seedlings are being placed into peat pots to continue growing.
This is more enjoyment then work!
Who wants to help mix the fish emulsion? The first organic feeding for the greenhouse today!
Cosmos in the greenhouse
Honest, hard working garden tools.
Garden Gear
Lucy hung out in greenhouse with me on Sunday, trying to soak up some warmth!
I had my camera with, and she snapped away at the seedlings and then had me model my new linen garden apron I made.
Just look at that pose!
Fashion Friday–Garden fashion, that is!
New garden boots made trudging through the fresh 6 inches of Snow, a little bit easier to take.
Zinnia’s
I will start the Zinnia seeds today.
They make a garden happy.
Pondering Season
As the cold weather still hangs on, work around the garden remains on hold.
This leaves me pondering….
The fence needs to be stained again–should I change the color? I’m leaning to a slightly darker grey.
What should I plant on this North side of the garden?
It’s partly shaded–Perennials or more cutting flowers?
More than “2 peas in a pod”
Dwarf Grey Sugar Pea
An Heirloom Pea–this is my favorite, and only pea I am growing this year. The plants grow to about 2 1/2 feet tall and I use willow sticks to stake the plants.
A beautiful blossom and plenty of sweet tender peas from this variety.
Nasturtium
Time to start the Nasturtium seeds.
A tradition for me, I plant them every year.
I use to always plant them in containers, or a window box,
then I visited a lovely garden where the gardener had them meandering all along the edges of her Perennials.
One of those moments–“Why didn’t I ever do that?”
Now the Nasturtium meander around the edges of my garden.
