Backup Plants

I started another set of seeds in case the rabbit plant does not make a come back. As you can see they are coming up.

This is 24 hours later. Fast growers.

My retaining wall was letting leaning on the far end. I dug it out and bought longer post to support it. The dirt should go back in today.

Pumpkin Patch 2009

I have made a few changes to the pumpkin patch. Three loads of compost and 1 of planter mix. I borrowed a rototiller from a neighbor to work it all in.








This is the seed heating mat I won last year. I found out the hard way that I need to not put the seeds directly on it. I cooked two seeds.








I have three plants ready to put in the ground. The right one is from the same seeds I planted from last year. The other two are seeds from Mr Bill.



Mothers Day

Happy Mothers Day!



I treated Louise to flowers from out front yard. Our neighbor Scott has planted some new ones and is taking better care of mine. The vase is from our high school prom! "A time to remember" was the theme.
