The lovely
Akiko White (who makes amazing cakelustrations; check out her
site, you'll know what I mean) asked for photos of our garden, so this is for her. :)
Some random pics of the garden:
|
he south garden, just outside of the main fenced garden where comfrey, squash, watermelons, and cukes are grown (a small fenced area at the end has tomatoes and eggplants) |
|
Inside main garden, the south strip... |
|
the middle strip of the main garden is a bit of a jungle-y mess right now; the kale is sporting a Tina Turner look... |
|
the north strip of the main garden |
|
a panorama taken against the north side of the main garden; the empty beds await fall crops planting |
|
inside the greenhouse where the malabar spinach is taking over; the front eggplant has died back, but the ones behind it are still going strong, trying to hold their own against the malabor spinach |
There's a north garden outside the main garden area but there's not much in there aside from a bed of sweet potatoes mowed down by the deer. And we have various fruit trees spread out all around the property. It's a lot to take care of; kudos to hubby and the boys for keeping on top of things.
