Garden Boxes Week 1.

This is my original box, AKA WildChild. Filled with miscellaneous perennial plants and herbs. Mostly to attract bees and butterflies. Plus goldfinch in late summer.

This is Black Snake Box. I did not see any evidence of a snake, black or otherwise.

And this is Box 34 because it has #34 tag on it. I think it will get more sun than Black Snake Box. 

And I am doing these last two boxes because The Asylum is my home and I view this as a “home improvement project”. I remember years ago at my Mom’s “home” – one of the old women had paid to have the sofas and chairs in the public area reupholstered. I asked why and the answer was:  “This is my home and it needed doing.” I didn’t understand that at the time. But, I do now. The Asylum is my home. 

There were about 90 rain-free minutes around noon today and that give me just enough time for planting. And, I was able to skip the watering-in step. 

The gardening project accounts for about 2 hours. Haven’t a clue where the rest of the day went.
