more garden pics

just took a few more pics.
installed the garden gate the other day



so far ,this box has red and white onions, strawberries, radishes, beets, spinach, cantaloupe, crookneck squash, beans and cucumbers, marigolds and chamomile. I'll be adding tomatoes as soon as they're big enough to transplant




this box contains watermelon and pumpkin along the back, bush beans, peas, cucumber, strawberry, green onion, swiss chard, romaine/dill, romanesco zucchini and i'll be adding more pumpkin, kidney beans, and more peas soon.


here are my new potato bins, $9 each at lowes, i planted red and white seed potatoes


and finally my peach tree in full bloom, it's a florida king variety

Very nice.

I also found this growing in my front yard, I have no idea what it is but it looks nice.

Your gardens look very nice! I'm still waiting on mine to sprout, thanks for sharing yours!

Your fence is beautiful! Someday I would love one like this. Did you put chicken wire around the inside to keep the bunnies out?

Looking good. The flower looks like an azalea.

jsa- i put lattice around the inside to keep smaller critters out.


tim- yeh it's an azalea, i passed a bunch in someones yard on the way home the other day and realized what it was. lol, i should have known, it's pretty common around here.

I love your fence! It looks so clean and neat. I bet it'll look different when all your plants are at full height

awesome fence!!

And love the Azalea, thats my daughters name so I'm partial

Thanks so much! But wait, what is a potato bin? Did I miss that in the book? I did my potatoes in double stacked sfg's, is that going to work?

LOL It better! I just planted half of my annual potatoes in TT sfg for the first time-30 squares.

If you google 'garbage can potatoes' you'll better understand the pic. It's just another way of maximizing square foot usage.

Wish I had good pics to share. Grass is still THINKING about turning green here, and I half expect it to snow again.

Very classy fence. I'm green with envy.
