Drought at the Marsh
Garden Update 060912
Praying for rain! Just finished watering the garden, by the time I was done it looked as if I hadn't even watered. Tomorrow I'm putting down the final layer of heavy mulch along with the seaper hoses!
My grapevine has grapes on it for the first time in 8 years, mainly because the neighborhood thief didn't shear it off to the quick this past winter!!! Yes I actually have someone who has been coming into my yard and cutting back my vines, and then stealing them!!!
Anyway, we'll be putting netting on the arbor this coming week to keep the cardinals, and other birds, from stealing my grapes. Mainly it's the cardinals that have been causing problems, they did a pretty good job of stripping the cherry tree that's just behind the grape vine, and the cherries hadn't even turned red yet.
April Showers
We are currently experiencing rain, much needed rain, yeah I know this is quite the turn around from last year but then who knew we'd have three flood years in a row! Well it's been dry here of late, lots of grass fires, etc. so when the rain started flying... yes I was excited. Pictures to be forth coming.
