A is mixing composted chicken manure into the front part of this bed. We will be planting melons here. My hope was to have the vines grow up and over the dill as it dies down, but it looks like we'll have to tear out the dill (unless the ladybugs take care of all the aphids for us!). See how the dill looks all sad in the background. Darn aphids.
I have started deadheading my cosmos and other flowers. M has been collecting the old blossoms and "planting" them in various garden spots. He is convinced they will grow. Sometimes he buries the whole flower, and sometimes he buries it above ground.
No pics of E. She has been taking nice long morning naps during our gardening time.
I was just wondering, "doesn't the baby follow you around and pull everything up?" How nice to have that time outside with the boys in the AM.
ReplyDeleteEven when she is out with us, she prefers to climb into the beds and eat the dirt. Or rocks. All the inedible stuff.
