Garden Journal

Saturday we went to the nursery and got plants, we got them all planted and Will put down fresh mulch and removed a dead tree and moved around a few other things in the yard.

Moving a palm to the back left a hole in the front bed, Will had the perfect idea of half burying a round pottery bowl, I think it came out so lovely.

I love the white and green gladiolas, I always think they look like hands praising the Lord!

And of course new plants for the container garden:

Basil, cilantro, two types of tomatoes and dill. In the middle is rosemary, the only thing from last year that made it through the winter.

The children spent a lot of time outside this weekend, it was so beautiful, although the tree pollen means everyone has runny noses.
