I am trying my hand at gardening this year, and I must admit that my efforts would probably get me kicked out of even the most lackadaisical garden club.
So far, I have killed four strawberry plants. This task took about three days of concentrated effort. Also on the hit list were four green bean plants that survived approximately two weeks of alternating dehydration and waterboarding, and then there were two romaine lettuce plants that I tortured for almost a month. Ironically the two romaine lettuce plants that survived are now the healthiest things in the garden.
It’s called tough love, people.
Ok, I don’t technically love my plants, but I do wish them a long and healthy life, and apparently, to survive my gardening competency, they have to be tough.
Anyway, in an effort to appease and reward my tenacious little green and leafy friends, I decided to make name tags for the survivors. Because, well, it’s easier than making all those formal introductions.

This month I decided to tackle one of the weed-coated areas around my pool to update it and make it look much more presentable. I removed all the old garden borders and edging, which were made of wood and vinyl and were disintegrating and cracking from being in the direct sun over the years. I replaced the borders and edging with brick, in addition to pulling a LOT of weeds! You may have seen my previous post detailing the border I made using concrete retaining wall blocks. For this project, I used much smaller bricks to build the borders and edging.

We built a raised garden bed a few years ago and every year we learn something new. One lesson is that although we stick a small marker (you know that small, plastic one that comes with the plant) to identify what we planted, we somehow lose half of them within weeks. This year I decided to create wooden vegetable garden markers, sturdy enough to test the outdoor elements.
