In the Garden This Morning

Posted in Outdoors

After several moves during out married life, we are finally settled (for now) in a place of our own.  Last year we got our garden in too late for salad veges (well, fruit actually) but this year we have managed to get tomatoes, cucumbers, capsicum, lettuces & strawberries underway.  We lost a few plants due to drowning during our very wet spring, but we were given some replacements from a friend with a very large garden!  The remaining plants are doing very well.

 

We had to cage the strawberries to stop the blackbirds getting them!

 

the strawberries are beautiful!

 

A clematis from last year that we thought had died!

Extra tomato plants in buckets.
