Garden update

Chatting to my folks last night brought up the topic of what was growing around my place at the moment, specifically my onions and garlic and a strange puckering on a few of my peach leaves. My onions don't seem to be bulbing out at the bottom just yet, maybe they need more time in the ground, and my garlic have yet to form it's scapes, so here are the photos I promised, plus one of our Thanksgiving dinner we had here a couple weeks ago. :)

Thanksgiving dinner Aussie style. Burnt ham and roast chook!

Front Yard Finishing Touches

Yesterday Dave and I finally got round to finishing off the front yard with the jarrah sawdust we put around all the other beds and lined it all with weed mat. We also got two native fish for our pond to help keep down mosquito larvae and hopefully reduce mosquito numbers around our place.
After what seemed like hours of reweeding the area we needed to put weedmat down on the rest went fairly quickly. It was a lovely day for it, not too hot and not too cold, and now the front yard looks great! Now just to save up for our white picket fence!
We took some photos along the way, enjoy!

Herb sprial crazyness. The nasturtium has gone viral and now trails all the way up and over the back fence

All finished!

Looking like the hippie I am. :)
