Growing Onward & Upward!




I moved the chairs into our back yard during the sunny weather.  
I put them inside our back porch during the rain.


George spread grass seed in the bare patches.


Transplanted the strawberries & moved the low voltage lighting in the beds.


Cleaned the river rocks out of the violet patch - so the flowers could grow like weeds!



Seeded patch.  (George removed the broken concrete & put in a wooden step.)



I transplanted oregano, chives, borage and sage from the greenhouse to the terrace.



Cleaning out the old strawberry hill.  There are still a lot of strawberry & thimble berry plants growing on the hill.  (I got tired of fighting with the buttercups.  They were winning!!!  Isn't it strange how weeds imitate the plants they grow near???



Looking at the back yard from the back porch.


This is the river rock garden I cleaned out so the violets can grow freely.  (They remind me of my friend Loretta Selle, who passed away in 2005.  She loved violets.  She even collected china tea cups with violets on it.)


I still need to transplant the chives in the whiskey barrel, so I can plant asparagus in it. 


The wooden step-way that George made to make a break from gravel to grass.  Sweet!


Seeded again!





Cukes growing on the back porch!!!  


Our first tomato plants breaking the potting soil!
