More News & Peektures from the Garden
Howdy folks!
I hope that all of our readers who garden/farm are having a successful season so far!
Over here we've been getting plenty of pollinators and other beneficial bugs {I hope that they will stay!} and a lot of different wildflowers popping up.
The other day I picked up a couple of Yellow Pear tomato plants and I am waiting for the rest of my tomato seedlings to be ready {a couple of friends were nice enough to start some for me!}. A couple of days ago I planted some bush beans {Contender & Orca so far}, Swiss chard {Rainbow & Fordhook Giant}, columbine flowers {Woodland Gold & White}, and a wildflower mix. I also planted some peas about a week back {Peas for Peace, Wando & Laxton's Progress}.
While cleaning up behind one of our sheds we have found all sorts of treasures and trinkets, from antique fishing weights to this piece of wood with some fungus on it {Turkey Tail?}, so that is now sitting in our shade garden.
Sláinte!

Beautiful photos! You got a really good one of the bee!
Sounds like you've had a right good time in the garden: how ace to find some hidden treasures!
Lovely photos :)
I do believe that those could be turkey's tail fungus. Wonder pictures!
The photo of the blue flowers is GORGEOUS! Just beautiful.
