The New Garden

The garden is all tilled, fertilized and planted...
even a cutting flower bed . 


New blueberry bushes.....


Eight new blueberry bushes, plus
the one we already had.



One of the pear trees, blooming
A garden is a lot of work....with the spraying to kill the weeds, tilling, fertilizing, tilling again....and then planting.  Next is keeping it all watered every day.  It is all so worth it when you are picking fresh veggies every day during the summer.  It's such a thrill when you walk down to water and you see more and more little tiny plants peeking through the dirt.  Then, the peas and beans start to climb the fence...and then bloom.  This Spring, I decided to plant a " cutting flower bed" at one end, outside of the garden.  I can see it in my mind.  Now just if it all comes up and everything blooms for me, the house will be full of fresh flowers all summer long.  Happy Spring everyone!!!!!
