Garden Update

I wasn't going to post until this weekend but when I got home from work the sun was out and I couldn't wait to go take a walk through the yard... so after taking the dog for a walk and getting dinner in the oven I went out and took a few photos....


Photo Below: The strawberries are looking very happy in their new home.

Photo Below: I can't believe how fast the raspberries are growing. This is only my second year growing them. A friend from work gave me four canes last winter so I put them in a big container and they seem to be quite happy.



Photo Below: The snap peas have found their way to the trellis with a little help.



Photo Below: The red norland potatoes are doing very well. I really don't know what to expect since I have never grow potatoes. I like the way they look and the leaves are so stout.



Photo Below: Finally the bintje potatoes have started to sprout.



Photo Below: The nectarine is in full bloom now.



Photo Below: Baby butterhead lettuce is loving our cool rainy weather.



This weekends to do list is a long one.
Check back this weekend to see what's going into the beds.
