So after several weeks of not quite right weather, my garden is done.

And the Russian tortoises that live in there could not be more happy. The progression is from winter hibernation garden to spring living it up garden.

Will probably look like a wasteland soon,after the RT gets done with it.

How did you make the watering dish? Is it out of concrete?

 

[bouaboua]

Yeah.....

That water dish look so nice. Good job for what you done or a wasteland when RT gets it.

I bought the watering dish at Lowes. It was a bird bath without the base. It was $79 last summer so I waited until winter and got it for $29. The RT's have been in there for the entire build. In one of the pics you can see my Juvenile male to the left of Texas. I grow lots of pasture mix at the front of it and I have Hibiscus that drops flowers in there from the porch. I planted some sweet potato last year that made it about two days and I planted a HUGE aloe last month. It lasted almost a week. Otherwise, they leave most of the stuff alone. They burrow under the sage and hide in the purple grass and monkey grass.

If you look at the second to last pic, you can see the big male coming back from laying waste to the nasturtiums he could at get through the fence.
