Bottle Border Installation Begins

So the lovely community of Palo Alto has begun contributing empty wine and Pellegrino bottles for our cause. I am estimating we need about 300 for the front yard. Today I installed about 75.

What plants went in today?
Albion, Chandler & Sequoia Strawberries
Lombardo Peppers
Galinas Cherry Tomato
Cilantro
Volunteer Mammoth Sunflowers

The pea, jalepeno and tomato seedlings are poised and ready to go in tomorrow. Pumpkin seeds will also be planted in mounds.

First Fruits

The green grapes began to bud! Purple and black are still settling into their new space. Volunteer sunflowers are also sprouting. Yay! Only half of the raspberry canes took root.
