Borage Seeds from last year are emerging from the soil |
Happy Earth Day everyone! Sunny and warmer days are finally here, and I have been hard at work in the garden.
Newly Planted Strawberry Surecrop Bed |
New Transplants:
- Strawberry "Surecrop" - I planted a new bed of surecrop strawberries. These were advertised to be high-yielding crops at an average of 3 pints of berries per plant, and is supposed to be a consistent producer.
- Early Girl Tomato - This hybrid tomato plant is an early producer and is supposed to bear 5oz fruits.
- Grape "Catwaba" - These grapes are supposed to be great for making jams and jellies, and even red wine or champagne. I will have to patient because this is its first year, and grapes generally produce fruit in their second or third year.
- Raspberry "Thornless Canby" - This plant is suppose to produce extra large, bright red raspberries, but I chose it mostly because it is thornless.
