Today I went to the "candy store," oh you know what I mean, that garden center with the prettier, bigger, and more unusual plants ($$$). I bought 18 plants. I went to http://www.lockwoodsgreenhouses.com I got everybody into the ground. It looks like a drop in the bucket.We even had time to get the deer fencing put up around the veggie bins. I attached tree branches every which way across the top, to try to keep the birds out. I saw it on a British blog.
Hi Claudia! I came here following your comment on MyScretGarden to thank you for your kind words. I appreciate it very much.
ReplyDeleteI like what you've done in your garden. Both paths on the pictures above look good. As for the birds, I read about using the old CDs that shine and scare them. I used to attach special shiny ribbons to my berry bushes. Good luck!
I was at Lockwoods today. They're gearing up for a VERY busy weekend.
ReplyDeleteI like the shape of your planting areas. I'd like to leave less grass for my husband to mow, too, but he always resists my efforts.
ReplyDeleteI understand how 18 plants might not seem like much, especially with a new garden...but they will be gorgeous as they grow;-) I'm sure you'll be visiting that nursery again soon!
ReplyDeleteYour path looks very nice! I'm really enjoying your blog!
Having a fresh bed to plant is a lot of fun. At first the plants do seem to disappear into it. I like imagining how it will look as it fills in. The paths at the side and to the back look good.
ReplyDeleteHi Claudia,
ReplyDeleteI can tell that your new garden is growing into a very beautiful one. I especially like the path, it's stylish (not sure if this is a good word to describe a garden, but that's the word first came to mind :)
