Garden Update- February 28


We built a trellis for our grape vines. You can see the two posts on the end and a center post made out of a branch that we chopped off of our Mesquite tree and trimmed using POWER TOOLS. We used wire, which should hold up much better than last year's fishing line tied to nails in the wall. 

Carrots, Swiss Chard, and grape vine in the back. I was all sorts of doubtful about the chard, but steamed chard with vinegar has turned out to be my new favorite side dish. 

Beets & Green Onion

Little Bitty Tomatoes! They looked so big in the cups, but then we put them outside and they look tiny. 

Red onion is starting to sprout

We'll see if we actually get some strawberries from our little patch on the side of the house. It might not get enough sunlight. We shall see!
Yellow Jasmine and the Dwarf Orange tree on the right

Flowers! Lots of them!
