Whimsical Garden

April 29, 2012 /

Since I finished a writing project today, I earned a few hours to work in the yard!  Hubby and I filled the raised garden boxes with soil and then shopped for veggies and herbs.  We also shopped for planters for our herbs, and found these lovely pots at a thrift store for only a couple bucks each.  Hubby drilled drainage holes, and strung the wire.  A few garden hooks, and Ta-Da!

My whimsical country herb garden:

Herbs: purple sage, sweet basil, oregano, thyme, curry, rosemary.  My hands smell like a spice shelf, and I am SO happy with how it turned out.  🙂

    Devon those are so lovely. I have my little container garden going. It is not as pretty as yours though. I am excited because I got ym lavender to grow and people say it is hard to grow lavender from a seed.

    Devon that is just too darn clever! You write great books, you knit cute little things, you make fanciful gardens… not jealous or anything.. 😀

    Sounds wonderfully relaxing, to spend a day creating a garden! I walked into my front yard yesterday and marked out where we plan on digging up the grass. Going to put the tomatoes and peppers in the ground this year. Also going to try some different varieties of beans, corn and salad mix. Was a beautiful day for it! *smile*
