Report on vege garden

kathiemt on Jan 8th 2008

Not a success story at all I’m afraid. Back of the garden, out of sight, out of mind. Readers will remember that it’s also by our rabbit cage but some days we wouldn’t feed them till late in the day when it was getting dark – too dark to work in the vege garden. And because of the hot weather and drought the veges have not done very well at all.

However, I’ve found another spot in our garden much closer to the back door. I have a Bonsai that was given to me for my 50th last year and I’m nursing a treefern we almost lost due to lack of water. I take our watering can out there every day after filling it from the buckets we keep permanently in our bathrooms.

So, once the weather is cooler I’ll clear out the space by our back patio and prepare it for vegetables, hopefully with more success this time.

    Kathie,

    I just love this blog site! You and I share yet another thing in common and that is gardening. My mother used to say that the most therapeutic thing you can do for yourself is work in the soil of the earth and she was right. Your plants are so luscious. Thank you for sharing the pictures with us.

    Hi Kathie,
    It’s nice to find a Melbourne garden blogger! That’s a gorgeous bonsai, just remember to give it no more than dappled light!
