I will now share some pictures of our gardens. This first one was taken after some April winds knocked off the pedals from three of the tulips. Today, only the stems can be seen on all four. But look at how well our yellow flowers have done!
On the side of the house we planted six beats and two rows of spinach seeds
We still need to get rid of the trees to the left.
I put the gloves on in the morning. My fingers felt very cold beneath the glove
Bonnie did not help with the gardening, but look how cute she is
another view of the yellow flowers
The missionaries helped Roland plant cucumber seeds and add dirt, mulching and such. They also put up a fence to keep the chickens out - we hope
This is one cucumber plant that we put above the cucumber seeds
I noticed we have mountain daisies growing along the hill
This is two of six peppers. You may wonder about the hay. It was a suggestion given by Raney's in one of the "Homestead" TV episodes. Thus we decided to try it.
We did not build a fence around our tomato plants but put up pinwheels and spinning flowers which we hope will keep the chickens out
Thus far it has seemed to work
We were told by many that it is too soon to plant. But Roland's stubborn and has planted anyway. As a bonus to the pics above are this morning sunrise below. Enjoy.
