Are We Having Fun Yet?

When gardening , it is tempting to want to jumpstart the heavy weapon and just to get to the playfulness hooey . We have six out of eight beds dig up , and I am fighting the urge to start add together plant . Our old test garden is bursting with forgotten treasure waiting to be brought to their newfangled home . Not only is that more fun than removing the sward from the last two bed but also it ’s easier . The fact I have to face up is that gardening is often rewarding , sometimes fun , and seldom easy .

We do have our first permanent plant in : ThujaFire Chief . It is a compact evergreen with spring and gloam color . Star Roses and Plants consecrate them to us for somevideoshoots we were doing , and I am look fore to see to it them mature – if they come through . The local deer consider our test garden to be ripe in the middle of their territorial dominion , and we set these outside of the fencing . Also , it has n’t rained in almost a month , and I have only watered them once since I planted them . I had well stop writing and get out there and give them a drink . That will be rewarding .
