Spring 2007 Garden Update
Despite the fact that my allergies have been horrible this spring (seriously what is up with the pollen this spring???!??!), it's still exciting that it's garden season once again!
So far we've planted peas, spring onions, chives, leeks, radishes, arugala, lettuce, cabbage, red cabbage (PURPLE is more rightly what it should be called!!), spinach, a mesculan salad mix, a couple of rosemary plants, two concord grapes and a blueberry bush. The plan was to plant some more peas today, but I can NOT find the bag that has all my seeds in it! I remember putting it somewhere so I wouldn't forget where it was, but well you know how that goes! So for now here's a few pictures of what's going on right now.
Peas
Alexis planted these peas in a couple of pots. They will be her snacking peas so hopefully she'll leave the ones in the garden alone (that is IF I can find the stupid seed bag! ;o))
Rosemary
What's a garden without a little rosemary? Rosemary is quite possibly my favorite herb. I love the smell, I love the look and I love the taste!
Lettuce
Lettuce looks regal to me. I think it's the green color! ;o)
Red Cabbage
Red? Really? I mean what person sat down and thought let's call this red? Purple yes? Green? Yes, there's some of that there too. But red? The same thing goes for red onions, red buds. All purple people! Uh hum.
Anyway, that's what is going on right now. I'll be getting tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers and eggplants into the ground very soon! And sunflowers. I'm going to plant a ton of sunflowers since I only planted 3 or 4 last year and none of them worked. (Damn squirrels!)
As I type up this little missive I'm sitting outside on my swing while Alexis plays in her sandbox. It's such a beautiful morning! That's all from the Daffodil Lane garden for now!
