Did it all. Unbelievable. Ken to the rescue

Pulled rhubarb and a $100 run through loblaws. Happy Victoria Day

So good to be out and able to do a few things. Sorting out the one veg bed is excellent. A place for tomatoes and potatoes.

Love the spring rhubarb.

First seeds planted. Radish, lettuce, marigold and pepper. Heating mat in place and on. I see Peppers in pots everywhere this summer!

A mild winter makes up, a bit, for having a “broken” neck. The peach survived!

Virginia’s gone all Snow White and feeding the birds that like to sit in the burning bush and take a dump.

The Columnar apples and the pear in the rear of #14 got their winter prune. A bit later again, but didn’t expect it get get so mild and stay mild. Should have paid more attention to the full moon, I guess.

Bad before the after.

Still learning the craft.

First couple of hours poking around the years today. Happy 2018.

Needed to get a shot of the split in the Sycamore tree.

Significant closure. It was at least a quarter inch wide at the coldest. Good news. I can’t imagine losing it.

What a fall this year. Summer just went on and on. So wonderfully mild, but little to no rain. And then it hit. A couple of cold days and the leaves died on the trees. The dogwoods still have all their leaves. Bit scary.

These asters served me well. Started off in the front urns and I replanted them around the yard.

Removed the salad bar to get the area cleared for the greenhouse. Moved these strawberries over to in front of the blueberry patch. That way I can net the entire bed.

Cant love this colour more.

Created a little azalea and rhododendron corner. It should look amazing from inside the greenhouse. Yes you will hear a lot more about that soon.

Looking good for early November.

Got 12 cloves of garlic in and another 22 narcissuses in today. Delighted that I got two Alberta dwarf spruce for the front urns. Another $200 visit to East End Garden Center. Love that little shop.

Kevin and the boys finished the wall last month.
