Blooming Garden!

Our garden is in full bloom and I love seeing how much it has grown the last few months! We have 3 rows of garden and unfortunately our row closest to the fence got destroyed a few weeks ago when painters came around and painted all the community fences. That row had all our herbs (basil, rosemary, mint, cilantro, parsley & lettuce) and everything died once the paint got on it :( We complained and got a $40 check from the company but we feel like it's too late in the season to replace it all. Oh well...

Our other 2 rows are doing great! We decided to make the middle row all flowers this year, only about half of them grew and bloomed but it still looks so beautiful!

Our last row has tomatoes, cherry tomatoes, jalapenos, bell peppers and some other hot pepper Craig planted that we can't remember the name- lol! Our zuccini, blueberries and broccoli didn't work out but my neighbor has some yummy zuccini growing and I always trade her a few for cherry tomatoes :)





Tomatoes are still green but they are getting big!


Our cherry tomatoes are sooo sweet and delicious!

Wow, awesome. We are eager to plant some stuff on the side of the house - you'll have to share some pointers and what you've learned the past 2 years. :)
