I ’ve been gardening , blogging , and living here for the last seven years , yet this is the first time I ’ve ever done a garden tour . Needless to say , it ’s been long delinquent !
I suppose I ’ve always held back because there were often other things I wanted to do first to get the garden “ camera ready . ” Things like blowing the leaf , graze the path , reconstruct the layer , wait for plants to grow bigger and better or pose in Modern plants and waiting forthoseto develop bigger and good . A working garden is neverending , right ?
Which is why you ’re get a good look at the garden as it is every daytime . It ’s not to the full weeded ormulched , nor do all the beds look their best ; a duo of them are out of commission since we started cutting back on our piss use of goods and services with summer approaching .
Nonetheless , it ’s a splendiferous time to be in the garden with all the nasturtiums in bloom . I have n’t planted nasturtium in seven years — they ’re all volunteers from the very first crop I seeded ! That original petite darn of flowers I grew the first year I hold out here has somehow distribute all over the attribute , even leaping across the roof and self - seeding on the other side of the star sign . We ’ve been articulatio genus - deep in the vines and work plenty ofpoor man ’s capers !
Before we move on to the TV , you might want torevisit my last postand familiarize yourself with the layout of the yard . I ’ve also noted a few things below , but if you have any questions , feel free to ask .

Notes
0:22Baby cameo !
0:52Pug cameo !
1:31Since many of you have asked for an update , you may see my Moro bloodline orangeness tree in the lower remaining corner ( aka the treeI planted my placenta under ) . No fruit yet , but it ’s doing well !
4:25You begin to get a closer facial expression here and throughout the garden at my irrigation frame-up . All of the tube and emitter are from DripWorks and I have astep - by - step guide to install one of their kits in this post .
4:50It ’s a little more covered up than common with nasturtiums , but this is myvintage pes cavus turn over bathtub planter(currently filled with chard and borage ) . I used theno - dig methodto build up an intact tub of nutrient - rich territory in just one season .
4:56Fun fact : There are really stairs right in front of me here , but they ’re entirely cover with volunteer nasturtiums . When we do n’t stay on top of pruning the vines ( like this season ) , we have to take the “ long fashion ” around and down to the lower garden .
6:42That little red cony shanty was where we quarantined our raw poulet for the first few weeks . They only roosted there at night ; during the mean solar day , we put them in a more spacious portable penitentiary in the yard ( seen briefly at6:10 ) .
8:06Yep , you ’re getting a sneak peep of the new flock ! We now have an Easter Egger , Golden Sex Link , and Silver Laced Wyandotte in gain to our Golden Laced Cochin .
9:10Most of the green you see in the lower yard are our unpaid worker tomato plant ! I counted around three dozen seedling in late winter and by now I ’ve recede track .
