Hi, fellas! ;)

My backyard garden is awakening for spring. This is my Ginkgo tree ~ several years old

Cacti and aloe took some rain and hail to wake up for the warm weather...

The lavender bush was never cut, as I tend to use it as a cover for our 'Social Network' fence :)

Bay leaves are about to be collected, right after the blossoming, when they're mostly aroma rich and potent.

The whole Bay tree is now 2 stories high after replanting from a broken clay pot gifted from my other granny ;)

You know these :P

need to fill up the space below, even it's not so sunny because of the big pine near the gardening bed...

Cucumber transplant...

Lettuces, tomatoes, young onion and garlic & cucumber...

Snails have eaten 4 or 5 of my lettuce babies, so I used the technique of spreading some shredded egg shells around them for shielding... IT WORKS! :D

This boxwood was affected by a disease years ago & I cut it down, so it's now rejuvenated. The bush was around 40 years old, but sadly enough all if it's species were affected in our town/ region...
interesting fact ::: BoxWood is the only wood that sinks in water!!! too dense! ;)

hope you're fine ;)

expect even more interesting updates soon...
