Mother’s Day Garden
Sunday, June 16, 2013So if you are my facebook friend you might have seen one of my status’ about how my father and sister in-law came down around mother’s day and brought plants and planted me a garden. I wasn’t getting to it because of having Matthew and things being crazy with a newborn.
It was such a blessing for them to do it!
Yesterday i spent the morning weeding because grass was growing all over from Bob putting the yard clippings in the beds as fertilizer all fall and spring.
I usually hate weeding but yesterday morning it was kinda fun. The morning was cooler then it had been and it was the perfect time to do it.
So this evening i went out and checked on the garden. I knew it didn’t need watering from all the watering i did yesterday and then last night it rained as well.
I took this time to put our tomato surrounds on the tomatoes since everything is growing like crazy.
Bed #1
This bed contains: (i think anyways, since i didn’t plant it and most this aren’t tagged I'm sorta guessing)- Peppers
- Tomatoes
- Cucumber (the climbing thing in the back)
- Rosemary
- And i believe bell peppers

Things are going good! Last year was so easy and fun, i hope this year is the same and things go well.
While i was also out there i sprayed all the plants down with my natural bug repellent, hope that helps.
