OK! In order to get this right you have to start reading 2 posts down. This one is the conclusion.

#1 The current result. Dale, the 4 rhubarb plants are in the next-to-the-top row.
#2 The secret of my success. I hauled 8 of these loads of horse manure. 3 to me, 3 to Becky and 2 to the rentals. Compared to politics, I like this a lot better.



























#3 The rocks I took out of the raspberry patch. I thought I had way too many until I started using them for pathways in the garden. See #1 by the fence. Now I may not have enough.
#4 The coolest little garden wagon dumper. Good for hauling rocks, manure, misc. garden debris and grandchildren.

Richards Memorial Strawberry Patch

Wow, this is confusing! I have to put the pictures in backwards to make them come out frontwards.

Here is the Silas & Elizabeth Richards Memorial Strawberry Patch. 115 plants going gang-busters.

Garden Report - Star Date 13 May 2009

OK. Dale-Oh-Mon called last night to say that he has been working in his garden (in anticipation of bringing home a new bride). I thought, "Working in your garden?! You don't have a clue what 'working in your garden' is!" (My dad can beat up your dad!)

So, here and in the following posts is a report of our garden as of this date.

#4 is the raspberry patch along the front of the garage.
#3 is a photo of the English Ivy that will provide the green in place of the boxwood bushes that were torn out.
#2 is the mystery plant. Trying to figure out if it is really a raspberry. Does it look like the plant in #1 to you? Take the poll.
