Oh how the garden grows

| No Comments

Spring is at last here, and we are back in the yard. It took a few days to get all the weeds out of the butterfly garden. I had great fun going shopping for plants, and once again I only managed to fill half the garden. Plus I still have many more beds to prepare. So much to do! But all the family has been helping some, even our young puppy Grover.

I look forward to all these plants getting big! The butterflies are already fluttering by from time to time. I've found earthworms, snakes, centipedes, and spiders -- such a change from the beginning of this garden, when we were working with scorched, unhealthy soil. The wildlife cometh!
