Hello everypuggy,
Winston heres.
Mum had a crisis in the veggie garden!!
Remember the nice plot we allocated for our veggies?
Well, Mum went outs about a week or two after we planted thems and I heard her shriek!
Well the veggie patch attracted these...
We then performed "operation relocate"
The carrots...... gone, totally eaten
The tomatoes..... gone, totally eaten
The beans..... rescued all but two and replanted in a planter
The peas.... rescued and replanted in a planter
Cucumbers..... rescued 4, lost 1 after the replant, they are barely hanging in!
On tops of that we have had really crumby weathers.
Temperatures below normal and
63% less sunlight than averge!
Mum was freaking outs!
I thinks she has it under control now.

I will now takes you on a tour of our garden.
This weekend was gorgeous and warms, finally!
The patio steps
This "welcome" planter is new this year.
Oh.... see the pug statue?

They obviously don't mind the rain and cloud!
The Pond

The pond also serves are a huge water dish for us, neighour pets and wildlifes!
Back on the patio we have our Fish Barrel.
One of Mum's rose plants
The planter beside the rose
(Mum almost killed it!
Forgot to water it... then it totally wilted.
Mum says cuz the huge tree above blocks the rains)
Tah Dah.....

As I pointed outs in the earlier photo....
Mum has them on the patio fence in a planter up off the ground
(the beans are right beside thems)
Back in the garden....
The veggie patch has been converted intos a Lavender patch!
We have chives, fennel and echinachea in theres too.
