Fenika, your toad is so cute! You can pet that kind, lol. Mom and both had ones who liked attention, as long as it was just a little pat on the head
OMG, I'm so excited about the garden this year
I've been planting ornamental things in their permanent spots finally, after planning and watching for bloomtimes, colors, etc. for literally years. Things were getting too big to move around!
I just got through planting my herb + veggie wheel garden (it's a big circle with landscape timbers to divide it up). I have one cherry tomato low bush type, Roma because I love Romas, and a tall cherry tomato type. Then yellow peppers, cucumbers, spaghetti squash, and I'm doing summer squash from seed this year (directly). I skipped the zucchini and eggplant this year, because we're still working in that area of the garden.
Herbs are oregano, Italian parsley, thyme, sage, rosemary, basil, chives, and dill. Also lemon balm, tea hyssop and pineapple mint, but those are for looks and the bees, really. Strawberries are already growing in that garden.
We're building the bramble arbor behind this wheel next; woot! I have the raspberries, blackberries, etc. in pots at the moment; they came in late winter. I love me some salads and berries!!
I'm supposed to get blueberries, too, but they've been ridiculously pricey in town this year. I'll probably order them by mail, too, like I did a bunch of fruits this season.
I'm still going to buy certain veggies and fruits, because they are too much work for me to grow. The price of berries (etc) had gotten plain silly, so that's why the big plans.
