It was fun to plan, but kind of a lot of work to manage, if I remember correctly. Around that time the deer and rabbits got pretty thick in our area, and we found that we were doing an awful lot of garden work just to keep the critters in produce. We tried doing container gardening on our patio, thinking that they wouldn't come that close tot he house. But when we saw deer on the patio chomping on our tomato plants we gave up.<br />Now we live further out, but in a new development. We thought we'd work on our garden here. We started with bulbs our first fall. The following summer we got a puppy, who spent the next few months digging up and eating all of our tulips and daffodils.<br />I think he may be over that (well, sort of). We have a few things growing in the back again. But we have 2 fig trees in the front, and one of them is just LOADED with small figs. We've already harvested 8 figs this season. You may need to teach me to can (finally).<br />LeonoreMe Againhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00947828794545000227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6093073966235735522.post-84126934458079191202011-06-10T12:36:40.625-04:002011-06-10T12:36:40.625-04:00Dianne....beautiful job!DRVDianne....beautiful job!DRVAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
