Fairy Garden


#One and I made a fairy garden today in an hypertufa we made a few years ago. (pronounced just like it sounds) A hypertufa is a planter made from a mixture of portland cement, perlite, peat moss, ground fiberglass, sticks,rocks and leaves and whatever else you want to add.

For our mini garden, we used moss, sticks, little rocks, sedum, thyme and chickens and hens.



I thought it would be cute to make a bigger "fairy swing" for our little herb garden, however now that I look at in pictures, it looks like something you would roast a pig on. Or one of those things the Aborigines would carry a prisoner on.? You know what I mean, with their hands and feet bound and slung over the stick? When they carry them around through the jungle scantily clad, singing and chanting, and licking their chops?



Actually it just looks like something that could impale a person if they fell on it.


OK, I'm getting rid of the stupid fairy swing.






Some chamomile for drying. I love the smell of dried chamomile.
