I only had 4 hours available to do a bit of gardening yesterday before it got too dark (and Game of Thrones!), and 30 minutes of that was for putting together one of the Aldi display shelves. It's perfect for my bonsai and succulents! Thanks, Rick, for alerting us to this sale!
The rest of the time was spent digging out my zoysia grass which had once again infiltrated the beds. And I figured, why not widen the beds while I'm digging out the zoysia!
I couldn't possibly fit the new plants in the existing beds, anyway. It took a couple of hours to dig out the zoysia and my terribly rocky soil, so that left me very little time for the actual planting. I still have so much more to plant! Ugh, my hands are already so sore...
This year I'm not growing tomatoes myself (just peppers), so the tomatoes I got yesterday were distributed to my sister and mother. I'll be enjoying the literal fruits of their labor this year.
And of course, I'll be reporting back to you with taste tests of the wonderful variety of tomatoes I got at the swap.
