Beautiful days of Early Spring

We've been very fortunate with our weather of late. Josh and I have been spending as much time as we can on the motorcycle. Among our travels around and about, we also found a lovely little Philippine restaurant - I've fallen in love with Banana Ketchup (the kind without any tomatoes, obviously).

Unfortunately, only a few of our new plants were able to be planted. The Madronas are in place on either side of the driveway. I suppose I should be worried about the hanging electrical lines above, but frankly by the time they are a problem we'll be old and gray. The Huckleberries need to be planted along the fences, hopefully in a few years they will provide privacy and a healthy crop for ourselves and our poultry. The Oregon Myrtle has been planted, as well as the big Fern and the Western Hemlocks, too.

Now if I could just decide where to plant the Lavender.

Good drainage, full sun, wind protection. Maybe slightly sandy soil if you have to amend for drainage.
