The garden is the poor man's apothecary. ~German Proverb

The Garden Layout
I tend to go way overboard with everything I do. So of course my first garden is about a ½ acre long and 6 ft deep. I’m not a patient person. I want the entire Garden done the way I want it and I want it done yesterday.
So Michael has been more than tolerant and supportive. He let me tear out his beautiful Grass with a Sod Cutter. Well I guess I shouldn’t say me. He tore out the grass with a manual sod cutter... for me. Then we sodded some of our splochy spots. Then I started to till the ground…. Tilling sux. So my neighbor let Michael use his tiller. So he tilled the ground for me…. sound like I have been doing a Lot of work doesn’t it?? 20 man hours later we are left with this. A pile of dirt!


















I just had to add how Teton feels about the mud hole. She just rolls in it.















These are my Peonies. They are absolutly huge. They are the size of my head and they smell like roses.
