Garden 2007!


Garden 2007!

For full photo evidence check out the garden gallery.

So this Sunday was spent buying and planing a patio garden. Now some people might say that this is too early, but to others that just means more tomatoes and more spinach!

Thankfully I fall into the later category and it did not frost last night, so this morning Danielle and I are still the proud owners of a garden:



This garden consists of the following:

- Patio tomatoes
- Patio roma tomatoes
- One giant full sized beefy beefsteak
- Basil of an Asian variety
- Plain Thyme
- Garlic chives
- Green, Red, and JalapeƱo peppers
- Romaine lettuce
- Spinach
- Swiss chard.

Then non-edible:

- Hosta
- Irish Moss
- and some other flowery plants whose identi-sticks were lost.

looks great! I would be sure to at least cover them up, though, if frost looks like even a distant possibility. the herbs especially.

i'm waiting until after may 24. partly out of business, and partly cause i'm a gardening chicken.

nice, I too will be starting a small pot-based garden in the near future. I think sometime this week as the temperature here is nearing 30 for the next couple days. I'd like to believe we are frost-free now.

so jealous! Annalise and I have vague plans of owning a greenhouse in the future. We'll have to call you up for expert assistance.

Lara - Yeah I'm always checking the overnight low to make sure nothing happens with the plants. Now do you mean May 2-4? or May 24th?

Jim - Cool, yeah I think it's pretty safe to say that the frost should be done, but I mean there's been snow in June so I guess you never can tell.

Chris - Cool a full-sized greenhouse or a small herbal one? It would be cool to have a greenhouse or a hothouse so that you could have the good veggies all year round.
