Yesterday I created a large, raised garlic bed. I planted 30 Legacy and 30 or so Siberian garlic cloves. Covered the whole things with straw. And now will forget until spring.
I've cleaned out some of the beds, but still need to finish them.
I need to buy more landscaping fabric and finish the paths with cedar chips.
I have planted 100 giant crocus bulbs all over the yard. Rachel and I planted hyacinths, Daffodils, and Jonquils (a freebie from Vesey's) in the cut flower bed.
I still need to plant the fancy daffodils. I have ten large bulbs that need to get in the ground.
I want to create a bed for grapes and a bed for blueberries. To do this, I need to pull up the bricks, do something with the strawberries, build the raised red .... and buy dirt. Some of this will have to wait for spring since it is hard to find dirt now.
I need to add some compost to the butterfly bed and the iris bed.
The herb beds needs to be cleaned out.
I also want to put in raised beds along the back of the garden along the fence.
The gutters need to be cleaned out and covered.
I have saved seeds from:
- the shasta daisy
- both types of marigolds
- the petunia Rachel gave me for mother's day this year
- gladiolas (thousands)
- lilies from the front bed
- morning glories
I still need to harvest the moon flower seeds. There is a huge pod I've been letting dry a bit on the vine that needs to be cut off.
