The back garden is very green:
That’s 5/18, 4/26, 4/8, and 3/20 (planting day). Look at all that lovely spinach!
We’ve had some salad twice already, from spinach, beet, and lettuce thinnings.
This past weekend I planted the last of the front garden: I’d put in some peppers, a tomato, some herbs, and a few flowers the week before. Then I bought more peppers, more tomatoes, and an eggplant from someone at work who’d saved seeds from last year and some herbs at the herb society’s annual sale. So we’ve got a yellow tomato, a Nebraska wedding tomato (orange), a red fig tomato, a regular red tomato, a Santa Fe pepper, a Thai pepper, two jalapeno plants, one yellow and two green bell peppers, cinnamon basil, dill, fennel, chives, rosemary, and marjoram. And a bunch of lettuce and onions coming up in the flower beds and pots, because that seemed like a good place for the extra seeds/sets. I wanted to get some native flowers from the prairie society, but I wouldn’t have had room for them. Maybe next year, if I dig another bed in the front.
It’s hard to see the plants in that photo because the whole bed’s mulched with leaves, but trust me, there’s 10 of them (the Thai pepper is in a pot).
