I've been working hard to create some raised beds for our garden area. There has also been a ton of weeding to do and a lot of soil amending as well. Will has used some 4x6's to make the edges for the beds. They were left over from the illegal addition built on to the house that we took down.
My bulbs are up out in front and are looking good! Note to self...plant more muscari this fall. I just didn't have enough of it. I love it so!
The easter egg radishes are getting close to harvest date, but still aren't round enough. They should be done by now. I'm not sure what is going on with that, but the leaves are big and healthy so I think they are ok, just growing slowly. I also started some baby lettuce in the other half of the water table. That was put in on March 9.
On March 11, I planted chocolate mint and peppermint in the front bed behind the roses (and currently, tulips). I want a ground cover that will flourish there and I wouldn't mind having some mint to add to my food and drinks, either.
The picture is of our rough garden area, with compost bin and 4 beds (so far).
Our compost seems to be cooking along too, can't wait for some chicken poo to add to it to make even better compost.
