Well we finally got everything planted.

Tomatoes and some eggplant over on the right:



A few peppers



The magnificent herb garden



And these things are at the height of their bloomage



Also planted beans, peas, lettuce, carrots and onions.

How 'bout you guys 'n gals? Let's see those pictures  TeddyR

Mimosa trees are weeds
But they have pretty flowers, & give lots of shade
everybody else in town can't get rid of them
me, I can't get one started

Second year running: no veg garden.   Bluesad

But we did expand the berry patches and put in two new black raspberries, two black currants and two blueberry bushes.  Planning to add two peach trees next year.  (Left it a bit late for this spring).  Strawberries, red raspberries, gooseberries and red currants have set a lot of fruit. Now we wait.

But I miss my corn and tomatoes.   Bluesad

I haven't planted a garden the last couple of years. But this oregano, which I originally planted five years ago, keeps popping back up every year.

I planted tomatoes, potatoes, beets, radishes, banana peppers, lettuce, broccoli and brussell sprouts. Was able to harvest lettuce & radishes already; the rest grew up really nice but we're overrun with grasshoppers so I don't know how much I'll be able to save...

The strawberries are done: now the raspberries are out to kill me!  Buggedout  Who knew all that mulch (*ahem* horse manure) I have been building up in their bed for the last couple of years would result in an explosion of production?  The gooseberries and redcurrants are not far behind.  Oh dear.

Winter here so nothing grows in my small garden now. Even if I had to plant zombies, they wouldn't grow either.

We had good strawberries at 1st, then a lot of wet weather rolled in and we lost a lot to rot.  The blueberries did terrible this year.  The regular garden is coming in fast.  We're already picking squash and zucchini.  The kids are ready to stage a revolt over the zucchini, because of how much we had last year.

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.
