Progress Report #3





]

I now have all the paths finished. I cleared the paths with the weed trimmer. Then I laid down a barrier fabric, used bricks to keep it down. Then covered it with hay. I have also weeded the center row. And weed wacked down all the tansy in the main area of the garden. It is still on all sides of the vegetable garden so I didn't feel I needed all of it. I wanted more space for other herbs now.

Herb Garden Stage 1

I have killed off all the grass. Now it's time to get it back into shape. Here are photos of the first stage.

The fenced in area in the background is the vegetable garden.

My Herb Garden 3 years ago.




Unfortunately this garden no longer looks like this. It lost a fight with bermuda. I broke down this year and sprayed chemicals on it. That would kill the grass but not the plants. But many of the herbs were chocked out before I decided to use the chemical.

There herbs included are ...
Coneflowers, nasturtiam, bee balm, hyssop, horseradish, lemon balm, chives, rhubarb, garlic,spearmint, tansy, yarrow, oergano, basil, sage, thyme and Comfory. And I'm sure a few I have forgotten.
