How Does Your Garden Grow?


The Herb Bed planted with basil, oregano, chives, parsley, cutting celery, sage, lavender, coneflower, thyme in the pot, rhubarb & chocolate mint.


Shelling peas around the edges (I'm trying free form branches for fencing for them this year), nasturiums & garlic.


3 rows Roma canning tomatoes and 1 row of pink beauty heirloom slicers, plus a sungold cherry thrown in for good measure.


Scallions, Yellow Onions, Fennel & 1 row of Red Poatoes.


Pole beans, cucumbers under individual row cover, cayenne peppers with stones around them.  Very shaded sprouting carrots in the back to the left and Savoy Cabbage & Broccoli under the hooped row cover.  The row cover is to help prevent pests from eating everyone up before they're full grown!


CHard & Kale bed!


Arugula, Lettuce Mix and Strawberries all interplanted.


Popping Corn in a bed with no walls.

As you can see it's a fully planted and established place this garden of mine.  However it is growing s.l.o.w.l.y.  I'm hoping a week of mostly sun might warm up the soils and things might start shooting out of the ground.  I have high hopes for the garden this year, but am also hoping to be relatively maintenance free, as my time is slight these days.  We'll check in in a few weeks, fingers crossed for tremendous growth...
