we don't have a huge block of land...large for our suburb though!!!lol...it's 631 m2..our house isn't huge but big enough so it takes up a bit of the land and we also have a small inground pool...having said that I always wanted to have a productive garden, one where we could grow food as well as being easy to look after and also a little pretty...I do need some more white flowers that I can put into vases..I love my federation daisies!!!! but they don't grow all the time!!!I also have had random vege patches...with not an overly amount of success...but thats coming very soon to our backyard!
But the best thing about my garden is that we are finally starting to get some good food from it...I can now say...go pick a piece of fruit from the yard...
Yeah...it might be a mandarin at the moment..
.lucky for me we all like mandarins...lol...I have a lemon tree where I have been making the most delish lemon butter,
got the recipe from a self sufficient life
I suggest you give it a try if you have lots of lemons dropping off your tree!!!
and we jhave an orange tree which I plan to make orange marmalade when they are ready...made some last year and it was very yummo...
until next time
lots of it
