Well, I've started to dig out a garden at our new house. I got a 1' by 2' bed so far, took forever to remove that turf! I saw
rose bushes at walmart yesterday, only $3.99 each, a few were hybrid teas, hopefully they still have some next week cuz I don't get allowence until Sunday, and someone owes me $20 at school (I paid for their trip cuz she forgot and it was the last day to hand in money)the next time we'll be visiting walmart is friday. today's we're going to the new house and I want to get a 5 by 7 bed, hopefully it's not too big. Here's what he old owners left behind:
patches of green shoots that smell like garlic
what appears to be a clump of columbine
tulips
iris
peony
hosta
two old plant labels that both say astilbe, both named
some sedum 2
rose of sharon
lots of creeping charlie!
I've decided to moce the bed to the side of the garden instead of along the far end of yard as I have planned. Since there's roughly three weeks until
spring, I'll try to sow some frost hardy annuals and veggies and see if they can grow. I was thinking of these:
sweet peas
calendula
alyssum
seed tape
cosmos
bachelor's buttons
but first I need to convince my dad to buy top soil!
