I have to give full credit for the phrase “cheap and cheerful” to my great friend Pam. The words are amazingly applicable to many things including this trellis:
I planted Burpee‘s Galaxy Mix climbing sweet peas today. The seeds are from 2005 so I am curious to see how many germinate.
I found a bunch of barely-held-together old windows in our garage, broke out the glass and stapled chicken wire to one side. Last year I trellised my cucs on them. If I wasn’t so impatient I would have scrubbed the flaking paint off of the frames before sticking in soil. Next year.
In other edible news: Everything is popping up that I planted on March 19 & 21.
