AG DAY 5: Planting my Plants

I dug holes to plant my Ag Day garden. 

I pulled the plants out gently. My snapdragon accidental fell out and some of it snapped off. This is disappointing. I hope it can grow again. 

I put the plants into the ground and gently covered them. 

I watered them when I was finished. 

AG DAY: 4. Buying my plants

After school today we went to buy my Ag Day plants. 

A man from the plant shop helped. I told him that I was doing an "island beauty" wreath. He helped my pick plants that would look tropical and with bright colours. He said I couldn't use hibiscus flowers because the flowers wouldn't be ready in time. So he helped me choose others.  He wants me to send him some photos of the wreath when it is done. 

When we got home we put the plants where we wanted to plant them. And watered them. Mum said we weren't allowed to plant them tonight as it was getting to late. 

AG DAY: 3. Preparing the garden

The garden looked bad like this so we cleaned it up. 

I pulled out the weeds. There were lots! 

We all helped pull the weeds out. 

Now the garden looks just like it did when I was little!! Really good! I am excited to plant my ag day plants in there. 

AG DAY: 2. Gathering the base of my wreath

On 14 August my family and I went to Tapapakanga Park. 

We got some drift wood there and somethings to make my wreath out of like shells and sea weed. 

I picked up a stinky "something" and had to throw a lot of the things away. 

AG DAY: 1. Planning my garden.

For Ag Day I am doing a wreath which I am going to call "Island Beauty". 

My wreath is going to be made of coconuts.  It is going to have flowers and plants that look tropical.
