Fred Meyer is very tricky (and smart). Once a year, they run a one day special when you can bring in all your flower pots, but their plants/flowers, and they'll plant them for you with their premium potting soil for free before you leave. We had no idea this deal was going on when we pulled up, but we quickly learned.
So... here's what we got:
Four Strawberry bushes (Ozarks and Sequioas)
A Black Raspberry bush
A Red Raspberry bush
and a Rhubarb plant
I am so excited to have started our own little patio garden. We probably won't get a huge crop this year, but for sure will next season, if not a few in the Fall. Until then, I'll have to get berries from the Farmer's Market to practice my jam making skills until then.
After going to Barnes and Noble to research our garden, I am certain that this adventure will be "fruitful" (sorry, I had to say it)!!! Look forward to Megan's Special Harvest Jam (next season)!!!
