The Bad Weather

The bad weather around here is just so frustrating Alaska is having better weather. It has been raining nonstop. Only for about 4 hours yesterday it was not raining but then it started again. Lately it has also been very windy as well. Then as you know the slugs will come out and they are eating all my vegetables. I tried to make a fence around one plant but i don't think it worked.

My Fairy Garden

I have a fairy garden it looks like this:

Spring

The polls is in!It proves that spring is the favorite of the voters.1 person likes winter 9 people like spring 3 people like fall and final 3 people like summer.I like spring the best because the cherry trees are blooming (ornamental) and the plum trees (ornamental).I love the smell because you can smell them feet away and you can use the flowers in bouquets.You also see the sprouts on bluebells and such.The warm weather is always good only it is not good when it snows!

Single Pea

We have a warm sunny side of our yard were we grow peas, carrots, potatoes, figs, strawberry ext...
But I had peas in my garden this summer well... I still do. I had around 12 dried peas left on the vine and without thinking I planted all of them and to my surprise they grew, all 11 of them!(I gave one to my little sister ). I told Mom.They are still growing.


But the weather was so cold they all got frozen, but once again I got one of these little peas to grow. It is still growing all I do is watch. It seems to do everything by itself.Even though it is only about 1 1/2 feet I still like to look at it. It has not gotten any peas and probably wont get any, but I have a good feeling 1 little pea will make it through the icy winters.

Humming Along

Lately we had a hummingbird in our yard we pretty much see her every day. She lives in our yard because we have an UN frozen feeder for it. I took the pictures of her. See below.


This is the original.

For this one I changed the edges of it.

Too many peas to pick

How do I pick all the peas? In one day I picked 36 peas with some help from my friend , so how do I? If you have any good IDEAS please tell me. 

I entered these in the Down on the Allotment blog's veggie show.

I also have lots of rooted veggies to carrots , onions and potatoes.  

Look how tall it is.

Buzzing Bees

I was out in my garden and I saw a lot of bees see: 

I put a video of some plants in our yard the bees like and they stay by all day  long. They fly all over the garden they fly so fast I could not get any good pictures of them. I have a flower called monkey flower it looks so cool mine is red and yellow, and it is huge it is 1 year old and is so big. The video has some bees in the penstemon flower by our house.
