Garlic looks great. To the right of the garlic is the onion bed which Bill planted last week. And he and Scott woodchipped all the pathways! All while I lounged on the beach in Florida!
First potatoes are up!
Peas and lettuce and spinach looking good!
Asparagus up (but bed is very weedy, again!)
Strawberries flowering, can't wait to taste those berries!
This morning Bill and I dug rocks from a flower bed at my house, and he added them to the herb circle. The herb garden looks really great. Yesterday, i planted lavender, oregano, rosemary, and sage.
The 12 beds (3 1/2 ' wide) all have really well defined 2' wide woodchip rows between them now, and the big paths down the middle and onthe edges are refilled with woodchips. Gives the whole garden a really well cared for look, thanks to Bill and Scott.
Even the new maple is looking good, giving it's first bit of shade!
Radishes doing well in the cold frame Also some red beets, brocoli, and cabbage.
Made a new trellis for growing pea pods! The peas and lettuce got a great start in march but haven't grown much in April because of the cold. Planted potatoes in March too and they haven't even sprouted yet!
Garlic in snow
We've moved all the plants into the greenhouse: the new tomatoes we replanted after the freezeout on March 25 and the basil which we've kept inside until now. Keeping the covers on for extra protection until the weather warms more. Carrying all the boxes in on cold nights. Added lights for a few degrees of extra warmth.
New tomato seedlings still very fragile!
Asparagus bed cleared of weeds
This is the bottom side of a piece of "sod" from the far southeast corner of the overgrown top strawberry bed...a tangle of huge grass roots. I regret to say that I seem to have ignored this bed last year. Bill weeded much of the rest last fall and again this spring,but this corner seems impossible. We're going to let it go until summer, harvest whatever it produces, and then dig it up. A whole bucket of weeds came out of the pathway!
