At Last...

Way back in June this year I planted all the flower seeds in our backyard. After 5 long months of growing, the delphiniums have finally bloomed! I don't know why they took soooo long; maybe because they needed richer soil. In any case, we are enjoying them now. Hopefully the frost won't kill them right away. :-)

A Final Garden Tour

Our garden this year is just about done. Last month I dug up all the carrots, and we washed, cut, and froze them.

Then a couple weeks ago I dug up all the potatoes, and we've been eating them. :-)

The strawberries are still going strong and spreading out. In fact, I ate two of them with my lunch yesterday.

Dad picked all the onions and now they're drying out on top of our out-of-use-at-the-moment rabbit cage.

Next it will be time to get the garden area all cleaned out and weeded. We may plant some things for a winter garden if we can figure out what we should grow and what could grow during the dull gray months until next summer. :-)
