You know its Spring when ...

Pea Picker Discovered

On Sunday morning I saw the culprit. She was walking in the easement on the other side of the driveway beyond my garden. Even though she wasn't in my garden, I knew I had found her out. She must stop by my garden every morning at dawn to see what more she can nibble on. Today there were more peas shoots nipped off where there would be a pea seed.

She's a turkey!

I planted more peas this morning and I will get out my nets and chicken wire and protect my peas.

Gardening is a constant battle isn't it?

Garden Plan

First plant five rows of Peas : Preparedness, Promptness, Perseverance, Politeness, and Prayer.

Next to them plant three rows of Squash : Squash Gossip, Squash Criticism, Squash Indifference.

Then put in five rows of Lettuce: Let us be Faithful; Let us be Unselfish; Let us be Truthful.

No garden is complete without Turnips: Turn up for Church; Turn up with a Smile; Turn up with a new Idea; Turn up with real Determination.--- The Friendship Book.

Thank you to Stewart Greenwood of France for sharing this with me.

Sprouts

I planted cucumbers and eggplants on Sunday and yesterday I had one of each germinated! Wow!

Also after several weeks, one of the habanero seeds has germinated.

Finally, some of my tomato seedlings are on their third sets of leaves.

What good news. Can't wait to plant them outside,
