Well I hope to do a little segment on the blog to follow the growth of the garden. Instead of just posting random photos … I will try to post a few photos following the lives of a few of the little planties







The first set of pictures will introduce the garden

This is the entrance... their are two cherry tomatoes in the green tubs, strawberries in the tan tubs with sunflowers and zinnia in the center. And  a handful of petunias (my new fav flower)

This is the onion/ clover patch...their are mostly red onions but the thick bunchy ones to the right of the photo are OK native wild onions.

 These are the peas, snow and sugar snaps... they are quite tangled but don't seem to be bothered by one another.


These are pole beans on one side of the fence and Radish on the other.  Along with some cute little Marigolds.

This is squash and zuccini patch number 1. This patch we started from seed.

These are the pickling cucumbers and the buckets on the outside of the fence are sunflower, zinnia, and marigold.

This is Squash and zuccini bed number two.  These little plants I purchased at a local nursery.  I also have a run of pickling cucumbers near the back of the bed and a flower bed against the trellis (Snaps, Cosmos, and marigold).

This is the broccoli almost ready to harvest.

This is the Acorn Squash Mound... with a marigold bed in the front and a handful of sunflowers along the lattice.




This is my attempt at a hanging tomatoe plant in a five gal. bucket
These are tomatoes of several varieties...and there are 3 more rows on the other side of the lattice. There are also potatoes in the two far tan tubs.  To the right are peppers, as well as in the near tan tub.
