Strawberries and Chives

When the new gardening season began the Mr. complained about having to once again rototill around the perennial Strawberries and Chives planted in the vegetable garden. I agreed that it was in fact annoying, so I decided to plant the Strawberries and Chives in a new location. Little did I know, that of course meant I needed to design a whole new garden space for them, which not only led to one stone wall, but two, as well as a redesign for last year’s “Rock Garden”, including a new “weed free” flagstone area.

Here is a look at my new Strawberry and Chive garden:















Later, I happily discovered that Strawberries and Chives are Companion plants and have been doing famously since their transplant. This is obviously still a work in progress; I have to complete the flagstone area and plant grass seed to fill in the bare spots. I hope to post an after shot in the near future...
