The garden looks great...all the plants are still there. Last year we would plant rows and rows of plants and go out the next day and they would be gone! Come to find out, gophers were getting them! I saw a cabbage plant disappear slowly down, then the gopher covered up it's hole and you would have never known there was a cabbage there at one time. Almost enough to make you think you hallucinated ever planting!! ;-) Anyway, we wrapped steel wool around the roots before we planted them this year. Hopefully that will keep the gophers from finding them so tasty!
Hmmm...I wonder, "of herbs and stewed gopher"? It has a ring to it!
