Yesterday I turned the garden horizontally and created rows. Last night the girls and I removed any living vegetation. Today I neatened up the rows and started planting. I also dug a small 3x3 garden plot for Aydi next to her swing in which she could play. She planted pumpkins in it. I have already planted the tomatoes and sunflowers and laid out the rest of the seeds and plants. We'll have the following:
Sunflowers
Tomatoes (Better Boy, Beefmaster, Sweet 100 cherry, Roma)
Bush beans
Broccoli
Onions
Kholrabi
Beets
Romaine lettuce
Collards
Carrots
Yellow squash
Cucumber (Easy slicer & Burpless)
Cantaloupe
Watermelon
Butternut squash
Pie pumpkin
As well as the following fruits:
Apple (golden delicious)
Pecan
Cherry
Fig
Nectarine
Pear
Plum
Rhubarb
Strawberry
Boysenberry
Grape
Black raspberry
I wanted to add some blueberry plants this year, but was too late to get them this time.
I also have some herb pots with:
Lemon and sweet basil
Lemon balm
Lavender
Rosemary
Chamomile
And I may add some stevia or other herbs for which I have seeds.
