Photo Update of the Garden Project

Yesterday I was able to get some pictures of the Garden Project, enjoy.

Wildflower Garden Area #1
Wildflower Garden Area #1 is starting to really green out.

This little flower came to visit - I need to learn its name.

Bonsai Oak Overlook
In this picture you can really see how Bonsai Oak is bent.
I can't wait till the buds turn into leaves.

Prepackaged Mullein?
PVC pipe for inserting fence posts. This Mullein decided it was a good place to grow.

My Bed Is Made

To most gardeners having a small area like this is easy. But up here, at 7,800 feet on rock mountain, there was a lot of work just to get it to this point. This spot is about 6 feet wide by about 4 feet deep. It will be a small vegetable patch for us to enjoy.

Just to give you an idea of what went into getting this area ready, here's the pile of rocks that came out. I put my gardening gloves down so you could get an idea of how much (and how big) these rocks are. My goal was to get a full shovel down in and be able to turn the dirt over. It took getting all these rocks out - just to allow that to happen.

Later this afternoon - if the wind holds back - I'm going to get the seeds in the ground. I'm planting: 2 - 3 Tomato plants, a small patch of Chives, Spinach, Lettuce, a few Radishes, 2 - 3 Basil plants, 2 - 3 Bell Pepper plants, and some Eatable Pod Peas. It will be a blessing just to see some green garden plants coming up.
