Plants

Plants

After I sold my car and went to the bank yesterday we went to Lowes and bought a few plants for the yard. We got some Raspberry, Blackberry and something-berry plants as well as this little Blue Spruce Tree.

Today, I spent the morning planting these plants and turning on the sprinkler system. I would have turned it on last weekend, but it rained over the weekend so there was no need.

This Blue Spruce is only 10 inches high and will grow very slowly. When it is finished, it should be about 60 feet high; of course that will be decades from now. Perhaps I'll still be photoblogging and can take a picture.

Tomatoes

Tomatoes

A few weeks back I bought a book on making pizza's. The book is divided into three sections, Red Pizzas, White Pizzas and Salads/deserts/other. All of the Red Pizzas use one sauce that comes from fresh tomatoes so I bought a few plants and planted one of them in a whiskey barrel in the backyard.
