So the apartment we live in has a great little back yard, about 10 ft by 15 ft. I've been wanting to get a garden going ever since we moved and I even sketched out my ideas at the end of last summer. We finally got it going this spring. Here is a little time lapse of our back yard:
The end of January:
 |
| The girls helped me dig up all the weeds and mutant mint plant. |
 |
| We did this about a week before Emily's due date and the same day they stripped my membranes. It was supposed to send me into labor but it didn't. |
 |
| The girls were great supervisors. |
 |
| Ryan building our grow box :) |
 |
| Our baby tomato and pepper plants and bean seeds that you can't see. |
 |
| A lemon tree!! |
 |
| Hydrangea |
 |
| Geranium |
 |
| Spanish Lavender |
 |
| I made us a little table for all our small potted plants :) |
 |
| Our cilantro |
 |
| Another friend gave us this Loganberry (It is a cross between a blackberry and raspberry) |
 |
| All our seeds are up! |
 |
| Our hydrangea, geranium, and rosemary |
How it looks now (Mid June):
 |
| The tomatoes are about 5 ft high. |
 |
| Our loganberry and little fuchsias. |
 |
| Our chives and thyme in back, the girls' flowers in the small pots in front and I haveno idea what the big thing in the middle is (it was given to us). |
 |
| Flower bed by our front door |
 |
| The lavender that I thought I killed before it even got in the ground. It turned out okay. |
Your garden looks amazing Hannah! And you got some really nice plants from that lady, how fun to be able to start with a lemon tree! I'll bet it's nice to be able to take care of your garden in your backyard rather than at the gardens. Well done!
ReplyDeletewow that is an amazing looking garden. I wish you lived closer so you could teach me how to be so awesome.
