It was a beautiful day today. I spent the afternoon in the garden. Here are a few pictures of what is going on.
Cabbages and a crystal ball.
Broccoli and a Calico
The first head of cabbage which will be kraut in a week.
Parsley, I have about four large parsley plants. Anyone want to come help me bale it?
James and Shala posted a meme yesterday and I thought I would play along.
Describe your gardening style.
Well does what a mess count as a style?
What was the last plant you bought?
Curly Whirly Juncus.
What were the last seeds you bought?
Heirloom tomatoes, but I have to add that I received some really cool heirloom seeds from Monica including Avivvi and Ladino di Panacchio. Thanks Monica.
When was the last time you picked dirt out from under your nail?
Well I need to do that right now.
Any plans for the garden this year?
Convert the whole thing over to raised beds. I am about a third done with this project.
What was your biggest mistake in gardening ever?
Giant rose bush in tiny space, using a broken thermometer in the compost pile, trying to grow a Brandy wine tomato plant year after year and never succeeding here because we get too hot (I never learn). I am sure there will be more.
Biggest success.
Raising three boys who love veggies.
If you could do anything right now regarding gardening what would it be.
Control the weather. Wait that is the gardening super power I want.
Thanks Double Danger for hosting this meme.
And if that were not enough. James asked me a few questions a little bit ago and tonight he posted my response with a few other garden bloggers. I feel so Auntly. Anyway, go check out the responses of "What Does Gardening Mean to You" over at Double Danger.
Happy October
