How Does My Garden Grow? . . . .
. . . Let me show you . . .
This year, I didn't plant any veggies. With my busy schedule and because varmints got into my cucumbers, zucchini and squash the last two years, nope . . . didn't even plant tomatoes. I went the easy route and just planted herbs and some wild flowers. I'm still happy with what I have.
I have echinacea and lavender . . .
echinacea, rosemary, sage, basil and English Daisies . . .
I love my sage bush, it's now about 5 years old and when it blooms it's full of gorgeous purple flowers.
This year, I went with simply seeding the front bed with two large packages of assorted wild flowers and I couldn't be happier with how pretty and happy-looking they are.
I still have chamomile, dill, cilantro and oregano on my kitchen window sill. I'm debating whether to take them outside in planters.
Special kudos to our friend, Chet, who did all the preparing and weeding for me, this year, to make it look so good and to my DD#2 who often helps me keep it looking so nice and healthy.
What did you plant this year?
