Finally back again - the days just seem to be going faster and faster! I have been busy with yard work (mum's and mine) and family.
Naomi's Garden - roses have established well and flowering non stop - time to start planting either side now - just shrubs and ground covers (oh alright some more roses too). The bottom left photo is what jumped into the ute last Friday - we travelled to Junee to a Monster Plant Sale (mum, myself and my friend Alice) - my son's ute must have a 'plant attractant' in the metal floor!! have been busy planting up pots and anything that holds dirt. The bird cage succulents are starting to take off!
I have potted up cuttings and cuttings and cutting and still have heaps to go - mostly from my garden and mums - but then I had to go and visit 2 friends didn't I - just hope they all strike and I will be on the way to filling all these garden beds here!!
the pot house is full of cuttings!!
plus new geraniums that jumped into my car (of all places) when I was looking around Bunning's!! hardy all the way here in the plant world!
yay!!! have finally got all my tomato plants in - now to start on capsicums, lettuce and herbs!!
All sorts and colours of tomatoes.
Even have some fruiting - first tomatoes of the season by the end of December I am thinking!! We have had a few showers here the last week so the planting has had a boost - we have a lot of storms predicted through tonight (I can hear the thunder rolling around out there now) so some more gentle showers will be coming. Had the biggest clap of thunder I have ever heard 2 nights ago - right at the back of the house - sounded like something exploded - I felt the house shake - and I shook for ages after it (that is after I took my heart out of my throat and put it back in my chest - raced outside like a looney to see what exploded!!! hahaha - must of been a sight for the dogs that weren't in hiding - then the thunder kept rolling over us (and heaps of lightening - hate that bit).
'Ma-ma can I look at your phone for a moment please' - Okay says I..... and this is what I find in the photos - 3 feral cousins - obviously nothing better to do with their time - I am sure I can fix that with a shovel and plants in their hands!!
I have actually done a little sewing and I will show you that in the next post.
And I have been having a catch up read of everyone's blog post's tonight - I haven't forgotten you all - just time gets away on me. I am trying to comment on at least one of everyone's posts (then you will know I have been to visit). Tomorrow I am of to a sewing morning (probably more a talking morning!!) - a little me time.
Enjoy your week everyone!!
Looks like you'll be kept busy in the garden, Kerrie.
ReplyDeleteYou really have been quite busy and productive. I think those plants have magnets on the bottom of the pots so they leap into the car with hidden magnets. I must go to Bunnings again as most of my pot plants are on their way out now. Didn't last long with the weather changes....hot, cold, windy. I am on the hunt for more geraniums myself . Great to see the children having fun.
ReplyDeleteBusy times in your garden Kerrie! Love all your cuttings sprouting in the Spring sunshine... & yes mr15 does that when he gets hold of my camera or phone too...
ReplyDeleteI love looking at all of your plants and reading about your garden plans. We are now in late fall and everything is dying off and getting cold. It's a trill to visit your garden.
