Fruits of labor
and fruiting bodies
The concentric garden that I featured last week is finished.
[This is a record of how it grew.]
The beds contain a variety of wildflowers, herbs and vegetables [see photo]. The only thing left to do is devise a way to get the hose around the beds without dragging it through the mulch and damaging the plants.
Meanwhile...
I found out what that mushroom was:an oyster a pheasant's back. My Lady Friend's grandfather was an avid mushroom hunter, and when I showed him this cut specimen, the first question he asked was "Was it growing on a tree?" He recognized it very quickly, but he was surprised at how large it was (about five inches).
It was quite tasty, and I'll be looking for more of these gifts.

I am curious about the progress of your lovely garden....
I was quite curious myself, as we'd left on a trip to the southwest on the 26th and just returned this evening.
Generally, it's all good. Two beds have had some curious lack of growth, and in only one case can I say it was shaky seeds. Everything else has done pretty well -- so well, in fact, that local rabbits have enjoyed some of the tender growth.
Photos to follow soon.
