Remember those pictures I posted of a dirty hole, subsequently filled with logs, sticks, and covered in hay?
This is that hole a few months later, as the plants are starting to come into Spring.
I planted:
- peppers
- chilli
- coriander
- sage
- aubergine
- vietnamese mint
- basil
- silverbeet
There’s also a mystery plant whose species I have forgotten. Need to wait till it fruits or is bigger to remember what it was.
Total cost for this bed was:
- a couple of hours of hard digging
- some time with the chainsaw and a tree we had to drop earlier
- one and a half bales of hay - roughly $18 AUD
It’s right outside the door, so every time I step out there now, instead of a dead pile of dirt I see my lovely new garden, yay!
