We are still trying to dig this stump out,. 3 years now we have been at this so my husband decided to burn it some to see if we can manage to get this to split. Was a huge tree and of course our favorite that came down a few years ago when we had some severe weather, the same yr we lost our grain bins. The yard was a huge mess then....so this is till some remnants to clean up.
Well got a good start now in the garden..spuds to the left...closest in the middle I am trying to raise a few broccoli for a friend this yr....and up the row a bit of course are onions.
I decided to create a garden of flowers. WHY I am not sure...so this is a bran new area dug up by hand and I planted a few things in it that hopefully will spread and grow further in years to come!! *cross your fingers* I can raise one heck of a veggie garden but I am not so sure about flowers and plants!
This is an annual plant and looks like mini candy corn.....kind of neat supposed to vine up ..so we shall see!
Isnt this red fabulous! I fell in love with the color ...every garden and home should have a splash of red!
and pink
Looking at it from a distance.....kind of bare yet but it will get better!!
