Maggie & Bob's Spring 2008 Garden


Kate suggested we put some photos of our backyard kitchen garden on the blog.

Click on photos link to see what's happening at our place in Spring.

Winter on the Adelaide plains allows us to have a lovely, healthy green veggie garden.

Once the very hot weather comes it is harder to keep plants looking so vibrant.
We use some shade cloth to help protect the plants on very hot days and can only water at certain times.
But we have lots of seeds germinating and look forward to lots of yummy salads and greens for our juicer.
Happy gardening everyone.

Maggie, your "spring collection" looks great. Here in France we are in the opposite season with things winding down for winter. Maybe I'll get to meet you and see your garden in 2010, if I get to Kate's KGI thing. I would certainly like to.

Thanks Ian, we had a lovely sunny day today. We look forward to seeing you in 2010, sounds a long way away.
You do a great job welcoming KGI members and helping the computer confused like me.

Maggie; My gardening is "turning" to a fall garden now, so this is the time of year when you and I share similar sorts of crops.

I like these little peeps into other people's gardens. Thanks, Maggie.

Ting, keep on mulching the garden. That'll keep the moisture in. :)
