Did you do something special to your soil to get it ready? I have to add richness to our soil---how do you lighten it up?<br /><br />Lynn from PendletonAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18071407.post-45802908267430810102010-04-24T22:26:27.393+02:002010-04-24T22:26:27.393+02:00Perhaps you should trade in your gardening shoes f...Perhaps you should trade in your gardening shoes for gardening boots. In my previous residence, I was lucky, we had several fruit trees already in place. All I had to do was enjoy the fruit. Especially the mangoes and seedless grapefruit.Starmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12386841450183061541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18071407.post-42242829903863917402010-04-24T16:28:37.107+02:002010-04-24T16:28:37.107+02:00I'm right there with Nadege:)I'm right there with Nadege:)Seine Judeet (Judith)https://www.blogger.com/profile/07407353544376132484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18071407.post-47996097617563488512010-04-24T11:58:57.184+02:002010-04-24T11:58:57.184+02:00The garden looks great!

There is nothing more rewarding that growing vegetables, picking fruit off a tree.Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06031276247743743680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18071407.post-30485828555818219162010-04-24T08:24:43.779+02:002010-04-24T08:24:43.779+02:00My million year old neighbour says it won't ra...My million year old neighbour says it won't rain for another 10-12 days and that we need this time for getting the potager digging finished. She told me anything already planted will be fine because it is quite humid, and assured me that yesterday was the moment for planting potatoes (fortunately, that's what I had been doing). Certainly my peas, mangetout and broad beans are looking good. I've sown lots of other things in cells, most of which has germinated, including sweet corn, to be planted out in due course. Exciting, eh ? :-))Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06472449597146519943noreply@blogger.com
