The garden update part 1 (Early Summer)

The garden has obviously been the big focus of the summer here. In fact we made the decision to put up with not having a fully functioning bathroom for four extra months so we could get it finished. The last post saw the veg patch only going in and a bunch of dirt in the middle.

The turf is now in and thriving, as are the vegetables. We have made a strategic decision and replanted to tomatoes closer to the house so they get more sun. It appears to be the right decision because they are growing like weeds and have tons of little yellow flowers, which will eventually turn into yummy little tomoatoes. Can't wait!

Plus we've gone further with putting in some nice plants that aren't edible because after all what's a garden without a bit of color? We've put in roses, clemantis, hydrangeas, lavender and lots of other plans. Here are some pics.


 This is proof why you should never listen to the people who say "Wait five weeks before cutting your turn for the first time". Totally out of control!!!
