Baby Robin

There is just one lonely baby robin out in the nest! The momma is gone all day presumably getting food and returns at night to her nest and baby. Will keep you updated and hope to have pictures some time soon.

I bordered the sides with cosmos, and made areas for the small plants of broccoli, onions, bell and jalapeno peppers, and tomatoes to go once they are properly hardened. I have the baby plants up […]

Chives Out of Control

Hi everyone, I figured this needs it’s own post so that people can search for it. 🙂 I have a chive plant (perennial) that I have had for about 4 years now. I love chives in dips and potatoes, but in a flower garden I am reconsidering my choice! Chives can send out runners and […]

Beetle Problem Last Year

So last year I had a small (kind of) infestation of those metalic/green/copper beetles. I think the soil that my roses came in was harboring some larvae. I am thinking they may be back if there were enough eggs in the soil that over-wintered. If they do come back I am going to just pick […]

I never harvested them and they are still alive out there!!! And, THEY LOOK GREAT! I am curious to see how they taste but they look awesome. I […]
