Yesterday I talked about planning my garden and ordering seeds. Well about 5 days later my packages came!
I was so excited!
I did a status update on facebook about it.
I am a nerd like that.
Beautiful new packets of beautiful new seeds! Love it.
That very same day I received two other deliveries.15 Heritage Raspberries
10 Apache Blackberries
1 Crimson Bunch Grape
1 Flame Bunch Grape
5 Black Spanish Wine Grapes
and
1 Kieffer Pear Tree
We are adding about 125 feet of edible hedging along the sides of our property and I am so excited to get these little guys started.
There are already some little leaves sprouting, meaning they are coming out of dormancy and need to be planted quickly.
Below you can see the root and the gel they are packed in, you know you are getting good bare root products if your supplier packs them with the gel. It keeps the roots moist and helps the plants survive shipping.
I also got 10 thyme plants, all a different varieties.
Since I am not ready to plant them just yet, they get a temporary home on my sunny window seal.
You are great! I keep thinking I am going to start doing things like this but haven't gotten there yet. Guess I will live vicariously
Where do you order your trees & bushes from?
I'm so excited you got a Kieffer Pear! Kieffer's are the best! LOL!
You are NOT a nerd. I completely understand your excitement because I have felt it myself! Can't wait to see your garden progress
