Enjoying the garden

The back yard is looking lovely. 

The weed growth has slowed down and we are mulching everything and everywhere 

The first pic is along the fence. We have mulched half of that garden and the second half will be done over the next few days 

Hopefully 

The nasturtiums are coming back. Unfortunately so are some weeds. We have couch grass and there is nothing we can do to stop it spreading so we just

Weed as often as we can and accept it as part of having gardens 

Although it does make a beautiful thick lawn 

The dwarf citrus are doing ok the last pot has a dead plant. I’m not sure what it was. Some sort of Berry bush so I’ll 

Pull it out and replace with something not sure just yet 

The sunflowers are growing everyday 

Soon they will be spectacular. Fingers crossed 

The cucumbers are growing well 

And we have flowers and little baby cucs 

I’ve never had eggplant get this big. I’m very excited 

Lots of pumpkin plants growing well. They too have flowers 

Heaps of green tomatoes 

Some are just turning in colour so I’ll be having fresh from the garden tomatoes very very soon 

A shot of the baby cucumbers 

The tamarillo has fruit and more flowers  

My radish seeds have sprouted 

And the tomatoes are growing well 

My one okra that has germinated. 

I do hope more will follow 

The spaghetti squash is going well unfortunately the corn has yet to appear. But we live in hope 

Having a drink and admiring the view 

My life might not be exciting for everyone. But knowing I am growing not only plants for beauty and for the bees 

But for me to be able to feed not only myself but my children makes me very happy indeed 

And the very best part is the sitting and admiring all your hard work come to fruition 

See ya
