My husband worked his tail off this weekend to rip out, prune and haul away most remnants of the summer; overgrowth, summer crops and past their prime zinnias. Then he cleared everything but two beds per my instruction and laid down very red bark on the trails and I had the fun job of opening bags of smelly organic soil, laying it down and re-wiring our drip system for each section. Presently, we have brand new oregano, cilantro, parsley, kale and I sowed spinach and radish seeds. I still have a couple of tomato plants, basil, chives and swiss chard producing at a steady never-ending outpour.
Welome to the new and improved winter garden beds, just waiting to flourish!
An unbelievable amount of work. WOW, looks great.
One day I’d love to have such a garden.
If not for those pesky rabbits. We have multi-generational bunny families frolicking in our yard and environs!!!
Truly, a labor of love.
Rabbits hate red pepper flakes (spread them around your newly planted vegetables or herbs) and certain plants, like kale and tomatoes.
Never heard of that, red pepper flakes. Thanks!
