Our Gardening

This is the garden at our current house. We inherited it and I must say, after moving in I found it such a delight. I wrote a little about that garden and that time in this previous post. Hubby has been busy weeding so we can get some mulch down. He has the mulch in the trailer out the front ready to go. It is a shame his good shovel and wheelbarrow are at the other house. It makes it a little more difficult. We get our mulch free from the tip. It is shredded eucalyptus and is fairly clean I think.



You can see what remains of our middle daughter's winter vegetable garden at the back near the winter buddliea that we like to train on sticks, whether completely successful or not. The weeds are still under the maple, but it is still nice to see the lovely maple leaves. The garden was dog free for a grand total of six days before we got the puppy! Amazingly he found the exact same spot to hide his bones as our dear Mousse.


The osmanthus birkwoodi hedge is our addition, they were a gift to us. The windows and the house need painting, but so does our other house. I have decided not to think about it too much. We are getting there slowly.



You can see from this photo that hubby has been mulching with his bucket of mulch, and now he is mowing the lawn. We are getting ready for school again tomorrow.
