A little gardening

11 April 2018

We took a day off interior work to do some quick garden repair work and get some of our seedlings into the ground.

 Strimming the two un-manured beds.  The plan was to get the mature compost into these two and have them usable this year.  It's not going to happen, there's no time.  So just a quick haircut, instead.

 At the Z bar eco-bio weekend last month we collected some heritage seed from the local seed-saving initiative, and these plants survived - two squash and two maize.  If they flourish, we can keep the seed and grow more next year.  

 The wavy-leaved monkey orchid is back - surviving in the teeth of our work in the garden each year.

 We planted out all the moringas that we had in pots.  The weather is warming up, hopefully they will cope

I put some nasturtium seeds in here, and some perennial onions nearby, perhaps they'll come up.
