Well last night the temperatures dropped down to about 2C.  Hubby picked up some more floating row cover/frost blanket and we finished covering everything up.  Thankfully we did not have any frost, but I’m glad to have the plants protected anyway.  Tonight is only suppose to go down to 6C and after that it looks really nice for the next week.

 

Our flowering crab apple is in full bloom.  Oh does it smell wonderful.

This past week our strawberries started to flower!  I fed them with some liquid seaweed last week and have been trying to keep them watered.  I need to get mulch for them soon.

Our first garden bed as it looked last Sunday night.  Last night we finished covering the next two rows with the floating row covers.  I also had to add heavier weights to hold it down.  The storm that came through Sunday night lifted the cover off the last two rows.  Now I have bricks and logs holding it down.  It gets very windy here!

I’m going to wait until Saturday to finish planting out the rest of my seedlings.
