... and then a berry patch ...
I do love getting packages in the mail from Raintree Nursery!
This time it's two blueberry patches (chosen specifically for cross pollination and a full season of bearing), strawberries, raspberries and blackberries. Look at how well the plants from Raintree are packaged! Here are some of the blackberries ...
...each in it's own protected pot.
My "Garden Fairy" is back in town and has started cleared out the weeds so I can start work on the "Lake Garden". It's going to be a combination Edible and Ornamental Garden ...
I have my work cut out for me ...

This is going to be fun!

And then, having nothing else to do, I planted an orchard ...
7 dwarf and semi-dwarf fruit trees chosen for the Pacific Northwest from Raintree Nursery.
2 apples and 2 pears so they will cross pollinate ... the cherry, plum and peach self pollinate.

The light at the end of the tunnel ... updated ...
Planted March 11 ... Peas (Cascadia), Lettuce (Merlot and Red Sails) and Radishes (French Breakfast). Looking good the first week of April!
Enjoy!

Right on schedule ... I need to harvest this bed to have room to plant tomatoes at the end of May.
