Naturally I hoped to have the garden looking great by now. Not yet.
I’ve been to three nurseries this season, all in May as April was too unreliable weather wise to purchase any warm weather plants, even if they would be in the garage under lights.
Everything in a green tray pictured goes into the garage at night, then out in the morning when it’s warmer, at least 60 degrees.
I’m taking out the raised beds in the center of the garden as nothing thrives there. Also, the beds are so thick with roots in the spring it’s depressing. Everything planted in the ground does much better, unless devoured by rabbits. No sign of the furballs in the back yard so far this spring.
I will be re-doing all of the perennial beds this year as well. Backbreaking yet ultimately lovely.
