More use for broken concrete

We had some small pieces of concrete that was left over from our retaining wall project.

We have now put them to use....



They help keep the wood chips away from the base of our fruit trees and also lend a rustic appeal

  2. Thank you for your comments. I have had good success rates with asian seeds i get from Botanical Interests (Yard long bean, bitter gourd, bottle gourds) and seeds of india (for snake gourds and broad beans and the prized Drumstick). In some instances, the Renee's gardens container eggplants tasted much better than the ones I grew from the indian seed varieties. The same is true for the Okra seeds I source from groworganic.com (the clemson spineless and the red burgundy have done better than the ones from seedsofindia)
