Sean and I spent a couple of hours in the backyard yesterday and finally got it to a place I've wanted for a long time. I cleaned off and rearranged all the pots on the patio, we moved plants and got everything I bought yesterday into the dirt...it's really starting to look full and cared for. Phase two of this minor project is what I'm jokingly calling, "the orchard" which consists of a little space we're clearing on the side of the yard to plant the dwarf meyer lemon tree we've had in a pot on the patio for the last nine years (that's never produced a single lemon) and the dwarf lime tree purchase that was part of my troublemaking yesterday...hopefully it'll be done by tomorrow.
In the meantime here's a couple of other photos from the yard...
Mac's old wagon that we've been meaning to plant in for months...we transferred a couple of dusty millers into it that we were otherwise going to take out of the yard to see if they'll survive in there.
Our out of control zucchini plant...I'm trying to find a good chcolate zucchini bread recipe so we can keep up with it...
The first tomato is almost ready...
When I made potato salad last week I could actually say the green onion was from my garden
and some flowers. :)
