Our garden - Spring 2013


After baby Elan went home Thursday, we made a trip to Calloway's Nursery to prepare our garden for planting since the last freeze came on Monday.  They had spent most of their day in pajamas. When I told them to get dressed so we could go buy dirt she put on this fancy number. 


Here are some of the secret ingredients in great uncle's recipe for growing perfect tomato plants. Max picked up the snuff for me. Yes, snuff!

Rhett is a great little gardener even wanting to wear work gloves. 


I had to move my basil and dill into raised pots because the bunnies kept eating them. And the rosemary  does better if I can move it around from shade to sun. 



 

This is butterfly garden, but again I had to move the dill and the parsley because the bunnies that live under that big oregano bush kept eating them. Those bunnies are my enemy, but I can't bring myself to kill them or destroy their home. 


 Parsley, chives, curled parsley and in the pink Kellyn has sunflowers.

Rhett's playgroup went to Calloway's nursery about 2 weeks ago and they showed the kids how to plant seeds and gave them free lettuce seeds. He wanted to plant them in this frog pot.
