It was cool enough today to get out and do some gardening. So Peace (oops, I'm not suppose to call him that anymore! He feels it doen't represent him properly so until I think of a new psuedonym for him I will referr to him as the man formally known as Peace) and I re-mulched one of the gardens. It was sooo over-grown.




We lay down heaps of wet cardboard boxes to help supress the weeds coming back.





Covered the whole lot with sugarcane mulch and planted a couple of new plants. A ground cover I only know as pig weed. It is succulent and has beautiful redish/pink flowers. The other was a Dianella, a native grass with edible blue berries...yum.

I picked some coriander seed for sowing and cooking...

while Tui explored the grass...

feeling all the new sensations with her cute, chubby little hands...

Oh, and I just loved this photo of the cows in the shade down at the river...
