Lots of lettuce


I decided to try growing lettuce in containers as previously it hasn't done very well in the vege patch thanks to the Wallaby's.

Mmmmm yum, so far so good!

The girls and their wares



5 eggs a day! I am forever packing them up & giving them away to the relos, playgroup, neighbours anyone..............................

Weekend projects..........




I found the containers on the throw out table at Kmart, last week for $5 ea.






So they were the perfect size for the Basil & Parsley plants that Greg bought me home from the nursery.



I am going to attempt to grow Coriander again for the billionth time. Any tips would be greatly appreciated as I am sick of it going to seed within weeks.


Also I dug up some Sea side daisy's out of mum's lawn. I have always loved this plant & I planted it in mum's garden, when I still lived at home years ago. It's has self seeded into her lawn- oops.




I love Roses.........




Especially David Austin & Old World Roses.


I need to draw a plan so that I don't forget their names as I am starting to get a collection.


Terrible pics, I'm sure Bec would do them justice, if she lived closer.
