Day 57...plants...

The last couple days it has been tolerable outside and the snow was melting and a muddy mess in some areas of the yard....my garden is still snow covered...for t he most part.....Winter is back for the day...temps are in the 20s today and the low tonight is back in the single digits...
Camo girl is sick today...so todays pictures are inside....

 
Mostly tomato plants, 3-4 different varieties


 
Just a few plants potted up

 
A updated pic of the sweet banana, haberno and cayenne peppers
I know I need to thinning them out some

 
A closer view of the rose a sharon


 
The Broccoli is about ready to be planted outside, starting to get another set of leaves.
Some of these will go in my garden and the others will be sold here locally...
 
The picture above this one that has two cups in a plastic baggie is an experiment I am working on, just love doing experiments...especially when they work..
 
I think I have stated before that where the broccoli are in the bigger aquarium in on the back porch with only a 60 watt bulb and a grow light on them
Some of the plants I moved back there didn't make it or haven't I still have some of the empty pots in there...the Newspaper pots really didn't work all the well with the cold....
 
I hope you all
ENJOY!

day 56......

 
I picked this up today for the angel garden

 
my wheelbarrow full of hens and chicks
can almost see some of them


                                                  one of the beds in strawberry fields

 
my baby bath tub...can finally see it, at least part of it

 
another bed in strawberry fields, this one has strawberries
 
 
just another bed of snow

 
I decided I wanted to move the bed, wasn't really happy where it was
first tried it here..

 
here is the place where the head and foot railings will be going, to try and use old chicken wire to make a hoop of sorts over it.

 
 
this is where the old box springs type thing will go...so that way the morning glories will climb on it as well
 
I hope you all
ENJOY~

Day 55....

Just some more snow pictures.....Who is getting tired of seeing snow pictures and want to see some green in the garden or play in the dirt for that matter....



                               Our road this morning, looking both ways from our driveway





              The dogs and I took a walk to get these pictures, have been wanting to get a picture of hay bale with snow on top for awhile...finally the temp was tolerable  to take the walk where the hay bales were
 
Can you believe this used to be a old school. this is what is left

 
This cedar tree says spring is close....I don't know if you can tell from the picture, but it has a lot of buds on it.

 
This is my garden this morning...
 
I so miss working in the garden, planting, harvesting the fruits of my labor
Soon I will be out there I know
 
I am planning on planting a few things today inside.
I hope you all
ENJOY!
