Lots Of Photos!!!

I didn't get to post on the weekend so there are lots of photo's today!! 


Last Saturday a new net went over the two raised beds to stop the White Cabbage Moths!! It was so good to watch them fluttering above the net not being able to get in!! :D Mwwaahahahaha!!!!!!!!



Pretty Petunias....


The Mammoth Snow Peas are going really well, the others are only just sprouting!! There are so many! Lol!


Happy Cosmos....


Silverbeet bed....


In which are some Volunteer Cherry Tomatoes!!! I have no idea what to do with them, but I can't bring myself to pull them out :(


Another Tomato Seedling close by....


The lone Ruby Brussel Sprout plant....


Peas....


The lettuce seedlings are very happy!! They flowed over the edge of their pots and are growing in the Poppy tray!! On Sunday I transplanted most of them into more trays to give to Friends...


The Romanesco and Purple Sprouting Broccoli seedlings...


The main Flower bed...


What's that hiding in the weeds???


A chicken's nest!!! Naughty chicken's are getting out and scratching up the garden!!! :(



They scratched up the Broad Beans...


:(


So I soaked the ones I found in seasol....


Then replanted them... I hope they will be ok... But I still cannot find how the chickens are getting through the fence???


A Giant Zinnia flower... I will have to pull them out soon, the flowers are still happy but the foliage of the plants are not...


The Volunteer Broad Bean still looks happy ...


Casey- Holding down the fort-/netting lol :)


I gave the duck some lettuce but missed and threw it on him instead lol!!


Today, every time I go out into the garden, it starts to rain- then when i come back inside, after about 10 minutes it's all sunshine again until I go back outside and its starts to rain!!! lol! I put stakes at the edges of the garden so that there is more room for the plants to grow under the netting....


All safe from the moths :)...


The Silverbeet grows so much faster in this bed, i guess it has more sunlight then the just silverbeet bed, I guess everything grows better, But I only have Silverbeet to compare... But then when Summer comes, I will have to put shade cloth up to protect everything because the sunlight is too strong....


For Mother's Day I'm giving Judi a pot full of pink Pansys, pink's her favorite colour.....


The pot is a really pretty Mother Of Pearl colour :)


Mrs Somerhalder gave me some seedlings, Purple Broccoli and Purple Cauliflower :)


And I bought some roses- "Double Delight" and "Mr Lincoln" ...


And Today I planted them out, I've ran out of space in the garden beds, so it's on to pots!! I'm putting one plant per pot...


As I was emptying some unoccupied pots full of soil, A giant worm said hello!!


Mrs Somerhalder's Purple Broccoli...


And Purple Cauliflower....


And my Romanesco Seedlings were all planted out.... But I ran out of pots and soil before I could plant out my Purple Sprouting Broccoli lol!! And next weekend being Mother's Day and me being a Florist means no more gardening for a week :( :( :'( and I bet It won't even rain at all next weekend :( LOL!!!


Happy Gardening Everyone!!! :)
