Okay, so this isn't my vegetable garden. Actually, I haven't even started my outdoor vegetables... But I have been revelling in the flowers greeting me this spring. It's been fun to figure out what I have growing in my yard. This is just one small garden area shown. We built the trellis a couple weeks ago and planted sweet peas (the flowers, not the veggie) beneath.
As far as vegetables go, these peas are doing the best.
I must confess that I killed most everything else. Everything still looks like seedlings, even after months. I have a few scraggly tomato plants, some poor cayenne peppers, two bell peppers that miraculously survived when I fried the rest... And so today at the local market I said "screw it" and bought a few small plants - shepard peppers and cayenne and two types of tomato plants. Just two of each. Next year, I may just toss the idea of starting these from seeds and buy the plants! At $1.25 for two plants - I only need a few - I can't go wrong!!
I sure hope all the seeds I plant directly outdoors will fare better... ...
I'll go admire my pretty perennials now. The ones I had nothing to with planting! That's why they grow so well![/img]
