Our garden is small at the moment, right now only 4'x8'. That is pretty much all I have room for. I may have over planted it, as I have physically run out of space for all the veggies that I want to grow.
In no particular order:
3 types of tomato plants
Cucumbers
Snow peas
Green beans
Yellow peppers
Collard Greens
That's all I had room for in the main plot. In two large pots on the back deck are jalepenos and basil & oregano.
No squash or zucchini this year.... Normally we can pick up those at the local farmers market.
As an update, I already have a few small green tomatoes growing! I can't wait to eat them :) My rosebush that I have had for years and managed not to kill has already put out a few blooms. Them smell divine, and are the most beautiful pale yellow/pink color that I have ever seen. Of course I might be a bit partial to it. I believe I see the beginnings of a tiny sprout of my hummingbird vine. Here is a picture for reference:
It is one of the most dainty, fast growing things I have ever seen, and I LOVE it.
In other news, I still wish that I could have some chickens. I don't know why I want them so badly. Something about fresh eggs and their "buck buck buck" seems to call to me. Unfortunately we live in a neighborhood where they are expressly forbidden. Which is probably a good thing. I am not sure how the dogs would treat the chickens, and I would be feel horrible if something happened to them.
Today I hope to put up my tomato stakes, bee house, and pea supports. I am hoping that by adding some large metal objects to the garden, I can keep Rosco out of it..... Large white hounds can be detrimental to newly developing young veggies.
