One of the things I did during the great Co-Vid-19 shut down during the spring of 2020 was work on my gardening. We had close to 250 feet of cement curbing put down, I scoured fb marketplace ads for free plants, Matt graciously supported my efforts by doing all the sprinkler work, dumped down loads of mulch and over the course of a few months had a very pretty garden. We still have lots more to do to get it the way we want it, but major improvements were made this spring and it was so fun to see everything blossom over the summer.
My zucchini and tomatoes
This was the only snapdragon flower that made it. Gavin left the chickens out one evening and apparently, they love snapdragons! lol
planted lots of blackberries that will produce next year!!
Loved my hollyhocks. They remind me of my Aunt Debbie. She taught me how to make a doll out of the ones she grew along the back of her home.
My roses!!!
Double hollyhock - it was a surprise to see a few double blooms that were thrown into my seed mix.
Bright and cheery!
Laynie insisted we plant carrots - rainbow ones. :)
sunflowers, pumpkins, squash, raspberries
