Well, day two of planting and of course we had to have a disagreement on what went where, herbally speaking. I was hopeful that I would get my way, but in my heart of hearts I knew that The Herbal Husband's plan was better and a bit easier to execute.
I did come up with a plan for the other back bed that I am working on. We are going to move some of the chives to the back and make a hedge out of it! That will open up space in my main herb garden that is suddenly out of space. That's what happens when everything is flourishing. So we added some space above the rock wall and we both think it has turned out well.

I am going to pull back the pineapple mint so that these plants have a chance. We had another great day here. Not too sunny and not too hot, just right! I also picked another batch of raspberries for jam tomorrow. I will have a whole box of jam already! Hope you had a great day. I will talk to you tomorrow.
Every thing looks healthy and so pretty. I need to do some major work in the herb beds.
ReplyDeleteIt is the angle of the photo! Not everything is neat and tidy! Going away in May is tough for my gardens! The Herbal Husband can't do everything and some things really don't get done from the previous year! There is work to be done! xo
