I planted 11 Hamson tomatoes on Saturday. Most are in wall o' water, although I didn't have enough for all of them and the boys knocked another one down. So far they are doing great!
The chickens got into the garden -- twice -- and started digging in my onions. Spiteful chickens. I've lost a few plants, so the chickens are staying locked up indefinitely (although they still have quite a space to roam around in).
My tulips and daffodils are spent. But my Sweet Williams are about ready to bloom.
The strawberries are in full bloom. Unfortunately, we're lacking in bees again this year. I sprinkled my water/sugar/peppermint/lemongrass mixture on them, which worked that day, but I haven't seen any more around. I'll have to put some in a shallow dish and refill it occasionally to bring the bees. We LOVE strawberries in our family.
The baby chicks spend every day outside roaming the yard. They are hilarious to watch as they chase each other around in the grass. I'm excited for the extra eggs they'll supply in, oh, six months or so.
