How my flowers are doing......



My tubs of annuals are doing well and starting to bush out nicely now :) The ones in my wooden tub still need to flower a lot more - maybe another week or so.....but the others are starting to flower nicely and I'm already having to deadhead well.

Other gardening news - we have our first strawberries!!! :) Yum!!!! Our potatoes and peas are doing VERY well but some things that did GREAT last year are doing TERRIBLY this year!!! Is it because it is so dry this year or WHY????? I am puzzled as we have used the same soil mix/ manure etc etc....water.....same seeds....???????

Raspberries are doing well - both the garden variety AND the wild raspberries are doing well...

It's very dry here - we're had some rain the last few days but not enough - we are in serious drought conditions and under fire bans again and splash parks are closed - farmers are saying its a disaster and the canola season is a disaster :( They can't feed their cattle this year and are selling them instead :(
