the garden is robust
i hadn't expected such strong growth from the chinese yams, but plants have fooled me before...the vines in the first photo ( with their neighbors wheat grass and asparagus ) have almost reached the end of the trellis ( secoond photo ) some redesign is in order...all the accessions of wheat grass from kansas have now begun the process of seed head formation...there is plenty of bird netting available if necessary but lee de haan says birds don't usually bother the seeds because they are so small...we'll see...the starlings ravaged the winter wheat last year...the gamagrass is also going well...the first terminal spike with the flower has appeared and if last season is anything to go by there will many more...things are good in the garden so far...if we keep after it we should be fine...more as it comes up.
