New pansies arrived at the garden center...tiny violas and two toned pansies. They are so beautiful...I picked up several and planted them yesterday, along with a large flat of petunias that are streaky purple colored.
Yesterday, I dug some soil in the covered bed into small rows and planted nine more broccoli plants and some purple hull peas(I'm not sure if purple hulls will survive the winter, but I decided to plant them because I had not yet eaten them, they had been in the frig for a couple of weeks).
The covered garden was repaired by Jerry this week. He took off the greenhouse panels that had broken during the hurricane and replaced them all with shadecloth. My hope is that rain can get in, making plantings more viable. Watering with city water is not nearly the same as nature's water from the sky...
My hubby asked what I wanted for our anniversary, 18 years on the 25th of October, and I told him that I already have it. I have him and the kids, pretty flowers growing in front and gardens to take my mind off of a hard day's work at the end of every stress-filled day. I consider myself to be quite fortunate, truly.
