Pictures!

Now everything is planted! And the patio is an absolute mess. The carrots sprouted just a few days ago and are coming up in force now.

This is one view of the patio. The tomato cages are huge, but Zac told me they were the smaller size. I should have gone to see the bigger size. I have never heard of tomato trees. This picture doesn't even show everything. To the left of the tomatoes is the planter of carrots. The pieces of wood are what Zac is going to use to build three trellises.

Another view of the patio. The orange things in the blue plastic container are my discarded plant labels. I switched them out with the nice new white ones. Kirke is having a hard time finding a spot to look through the lattice.


Chamomile! No flowers yet.



Peas! These are doing very well. They are sending out climbing shoots (I'm sure there is a real name for them), so hopefully they'll have a trellis to climb soon.


Peppers! Still very small. What is amazing to me is how poorly they do on really hot days. They do not like it, they didn't like it last year either. Wimpy peppers. I have two planters of these, for six plants. Two mini yellow, two mini red, and two regular sized green/red.


A note to Grandma: I know you wanted to buy me the pots...but I'll tell you what, get me two topsy turvy hanging bags for Christmas and I'll grow cucumbers next year.
