Western Blueberry (西側のブルーベリー)

There are two kind of Blueberry in our garden.

This is western blueberry which went by seven years in our garden.

But it's still small tree.
I heard that acid soil must be suitable to grow up for blueberry.

So I moved and laid down it in acid soil.

Preys (蜘蛛の餌食達)

When I tended strawberries.

I found out then in a spider's web.

They were struggling for cutting themselves free from the web.

They were desperate to be free. But they were not.

So I helped them instead of the price of the photo model.
But there are many spider's web in our garden,
so a lot of will be preys.

Our art gallery 035 （娘の作品）

The portrait of Jeanne d'Arc and the pencil drawing were created by our daughter in her high school age.


They are on the book rack as our arts.


We met her in Tokyo today.
It seemed that she is a little plump.


These are very little fruitages of the peach.



These are little fruitages of the American cherry also.
I and Aye yai hope that all of them will be happy.

Weed 008 （名無しの権兵衛） "Dandelion" 「再びタンポポ」

This dandelion is in auto parking front of our house.

This is a different kind dandelion which I posted before.

By the way, we have had the practice of the mixed chorus,

so I was tired a little bit.

Today's works （今日は良く働きました！！ 柑橘類）

First of all, we did pull weeds in our garden.
And then I laid down the three eggplants.

And another thing, I planted two kind of citrus in the garden.

One is Jabara ”ジャバラ” , it's like Chinese lemon.

Another one is a new Orange, it named Setoka ”瀬戸香”.

I did branch lopping of Cleyera japonica, "SAKAKI", ”榊” again.

But she does not find out the branch lopping.

When she finds out that, she will anger me.

We started to work from am 7:00, and finished pm 4:00.
Our garden is receiving direct west sun.

By the way, we had a house painter, and paid 25,000 yen for painting.
The cost may be cheaper than going rate, I think.

Weed 007 （名無しの権兵衛） "Poppy" 「ケシ」

Although this may be called Poppy, It's just weed.

Because no one plants seeds on our garden.


We didn't pull up them.

#1 Cherry （義父の庭から来た桜）

These are the same as flowers of last year.



But number of the flower are more than last year.
