What's on your menu today (PHOTO FRIDAY) RNYers?

I am SO envious of the abilities to start from seed and plant outdoors. I can't seem to "harden" my plants when moving them to the garden

I lost a bunch while hardening them off. It wasn't overnight that was the issue. It was getting scorched in the sun. Marigolds and petunias were pretty easy. But geraniums were very sensitive to the sun.

Even my sun flowers bit the dust!! :(

Damn, John... that's a lot of freaking rocks!!!

But on the other hand, the wall you've built with them is gorgeous!!!

Beautiful yard! I love flowers but hate gardening - too bad no one else in the house does either!

Here are the pics I promised of husband's seed starting. A couple of these I put on my own post too--sorry for the duplication for the overall thread, but I wanted to be sure you saw these if you didn't read the entire thread today.

I'd be afraid of the tall bins acting like an Easybake oven!

I used bins only 6 inches tall, just big enough to haul them in when they needed a rest.

Wow great yard! The most I hope for is neat and clean and not embarrassing the neighbors...

I dispense with the "not embarrassing the neighbors" too. If they are embarrassed they are welcome to bring their mower/weed eater over and pitch in :) My goal is to not have my wife ask "So what's going on with the lawn?" more than once before I go take care of it.

I love your assorted of flowers and that you brought them all up from little seeds!

We are not rocky here at all, clay but no rocks. Maybe make a fun rock garden???? That's a lot of rocks, is your subdivision built over a quarry or something?
