garden update and puppies


Cotton plants growing in the house window. I wonder where I should put them now that they have actually come up for me? They should have pretty pink and yellow flowers.

Adding bricks and another bean fence to the garden. I planted Glass Gem popcorn, Hopi Purple String Beans and some gorgeous blue gladiolus bulbs Mark got for us. Esme helped with the beans :)


This is what happens to the gladiolus that grow outside the garden.. Kitty goat mows them down.


Spud puppy (left) and Sweetie puppy (right), bluetick coonhound and catahoula leopard dog cross.


The whole garden with the new lilac tree in the corner. The sweet corn on the left is doing well but the tomatoes really don't like all this cold weather with dry periods in between large rainstorms.

I have to work tonight but have tomorrow off - sadly, it is forecasted to rain tomorrow, and Esme really wants to go to the park. I have been knitting on her blanket and right now she is painting a map on some paper.  Her preschool graduation is May 20th, which is a Monday, in the evening.

 Provider beans coming up next to the pea fence
 Yellow scallop squash is getting big now.  And, the mint is getting HUGE.
