I didn't think the carrots would ever come up, but they did. Slowly growing. The seeds were kind of old so maybe that was why.
Bought some lettuce from Lowes. It never came up. Not sure if maybe these seeds were old too. I bought some more from Park Seed, www.parkseed.com/. Should be here this coming week. Also bought some lavender and chives.
The story with the chives... I thought I planted chives, but this came up:
I think its basil. I planted multi-color basil beside it, which is coming up too. Not sure how this happened.
I really think the package was labeled incorrectly, but, I probably mixed things up. Oh well, it looks good.
We've eaten a lot of spinach and lettuce. Its kind of weird but I'll cut it and it wilts quite a lot.
I'll get it home and clean it, put it in the refrigerator, and it gets so fresh and lasts over a week. I love it so much.
Still can't believe how easy all this was. Probably just a really good year with the right amount of rain and right
temperature. Right?
Yesterday I took this picture:
many blossoms. If you live near me or work with me, you'll probably get some.
Tomato plants, and we grew these from seeds (just saying):
No tomatoes yet, so I shouldn't be so cocky. Better wait to boast once we see the actual tomatoes.
Peas, however, didn't plant near enough of these. We may have enough for one meal:
Here is a panoramic picture of the whole garden:
So that's the update. Growing great, and not much work required, so far. Wow, so surprised.
Enjoy, I know we are!!
