    What have you planted in your garden?

    I thought it would be fun to hear what everyone has planted in their gardens? Me? Flowers only. No plot at our new place. Next year, though!

    Tell us about all your lucious fruits and veggies!

    I am a veggie person....Tomatoes, cukes, eggplant, peppers, green beans and lettuce. Not huge, just enough to keep me busy... I love the summer annuals in containers, but get very little sun so I am limited.....Best, you will have fun preparing for next year's bloom's!!

          Oh...we've been planting everything this year.

          We have many herbs growing; thyme, rosemary, oregano, dill, curry, chives, parsley...lots of lavendar.
          We've also got different varities of tomatoes, swiss chard, courgettes, cucumbers..
          There are lots of ornamental grasses, weeping cherry trees, lilacs, weeping pee tree, hostas, wooly thyme, pansies and violas, rose bushes, sedum...we've planted everything this year. Our garden is looking so great, and we also do lots of container planting as well. I have the pretty grasses all growing in Italian inspired containers in groups and they look beautiful.

                corn
                acorn squash

                  OMG I just about wet my Greenie Inspired Big Girl Pants!!!!!!!! :H

                  A friend of mine who used to work at a landscaping place, AND had a rather nasty ex-husband said one time at a business meeting:

                  "We have a Valentines Day Special this year. A wheelbarrow, a shovel, and a bag of lime."

                  I about wet my pants then too.

                    What have you planted in your garden?

                    I have, in my garden, strawberries, black raspberries (God Given) and huckleberries (also God given).

                    I have Muscadine Grapes (God given) and a pepper that grew up from last year.

                    I did not plant a tomato this year. Nobody eats them but me!!! (Oh, and I don't deserve the tomatos I love!!) LOL

                    I wish I lived a life that let me plant veges. I love them.

                    but when you travel every week, you leave it to those who stay at home. That is not fair.

                    I am looking forward to the pepper that grew from seed, though.

                    Love,

                        Dove, take a big basket of apples down to your nearest homeless shelter or a church. We used to get apple slices with peanut butter at Sunday School.

                          I have the blackest thumb known to man. All I have ever been able to grow is orchids in hanging baskets. I am truly impressed with all of you!
                          Sometimes I wonder...."Why is that frisbee getting bigger?"...and then it hits me.

                            Our planting season here in the deep south doesnt start until Sept....Oct. and pretty much ends in May,but we have tropical fruit vines and trees that have fruit on and off all year.The same is true for many flowers and vines.Summer sees us battling mold and fungus.I really miss the coming and going of the seasons.I was always so ready to get digging in the spring garden.I loved the freshness of the Earth.All we have here is sand and more sand.I do have window boxes filled with Parsley,Sage,Rosemary and Thyme....LOVE THAT SONG,but honestly I do have those herbs growing...Evie

                              No garden this year, just containers of flowers on the deck and front porch. Its so wet here I am so glad I did not plant anything it would have washed out or like last year so full of mosquitos I could hardly stand it.
