Okay so if you read my blog or know me at all you will know that I do NOT garden, I kill plants! I grow weeds really really well but thats about it. So I have no idea why, when my wonderful Mother-In-Law and my children expressed a desire to create a veggie garden down the side of our house in some space we pretty much ignore, I gave in and said yes but agree I did and today after a trip to Bunnings for some plants, potting mix and a few other bits and got to work on this space
Donning gloves
Removing the fountain
Clean up around it our ‘pot’
Getting the soil ready
Adding the potting mix
And finally getting to plant our goodies
Watering them in
Organising a special spot for our tomatoes, peas and beans
So we now have Parsley, Basil, Chives, Lettuce and Carrots in our pot
and down along the fence
we have tomatoes
Peas
and Beans
I just have to keep it all alive :o)
well my theory is if mummsy-in-law planted it then isn't it her garden and therefore her responsibility to care for it????
ReplyDeletegood luck keeping it alive and weed free :)
Yeah the only problem with that is that she lives in Margaret River. Great for visiting and get aways not so great for maintaining my new garden :)
ReplyDeleteTeach the boys how to do it and then you are off the hook!
