Plantaholic's Island Back Yard garden
Plantings (17)
Progress Journal (4)
Wish List (0)
I’m so HAPPY!! This is part of my Mother’s Day present. The hubby and our 14 year old spent a good part of the day putting this island garden in for me today! I already have plants planned to go in….we are just waiting for the right weather – this late in May they are still predicting frost.
The soil for this garden is a mixture of compost & soil mix amended with sheep manure and additional leaf compost.
