FLOWERS
Because of the cold spring we have had we are about a month behind on our flowers and other plants. My flowers are finally starting to bloom. Here are a few of them:
I was outside working and I have raspberries all over my plants! This is a big deal as I have tried to grow raspberries several times and failed miserable - my little patch is happy, healthy and nearly ready for harvest. YIPPEE We planted them and put about 6 inches of barkchips all around them. I think that was the ticket for them - they like acid soil and the bark chips help with that.
- I feel like "THE FARMER IN THE DELL!
FUN in the Greenhouse.
We are getting things set up inside. Here is a picture of our progress as of last night.
When we are done we will have 8 feet of propagating area at the front of the greenhouse. We will add shelves, a table and garbage can's for dirt and fertilizer. Then there will be 6 raised boxes in the front to hold the small veggies and herbs. Then behind there is an open area that will be for bigger plants, small tree's etc. We are adding a few fences to the right side for vertical gardening. On the left side will be a small pond that will be used for propagating water plants and a nursery for plants that need some TLC. On the outside of the greenhouse to the right will be a compost bin for close use in the greenhouse.

Thanks for stopping by - Stay Cool!
Today I am grateful for the sunshine and the summer weather - of course we are in Idaho and it is low 80"s - I know some of you have major heat going on - take care of yourselves!

Nice job on the greenhouse. I've been busy on other things here but am thinking of putting one up also. Appreciate you stopping by and am following now and would appreciate it if you would like to also.

I always love peeks into someone else's greenhouse. You all have really been busy.
I'm setting mine up only in my mind, too hot inside right now. The cat goes out and sits in it before the sun comes up; he loves it too.
Everything looks great!
your blooms are gorgeous!
