The garden




My garden this year is a bit "different." I decided to not plant my seeds / starts in rows, but to scatter it and make it a bit more random. If everything had come in I think it would have been really pretty, but I had a number of things not sprout at all this year. So, it is a bit patchy in spots. But, the things that did take are coming in nicely and I am still having fun with it. My squash are growing the best and I am hoping ot have some tomatoes soon. My lettuce varieties are great and are ready to be harvested, as are my onions and of course.. BASIL. We snatch a bit of that most days. It is a really hot and dry summer, so I am so proud of the little veggies... hanging in there. I feel awful watering too much, so we made an agreement that I would give them just enough water if they will be really strong and conserve as much water as possible. So far, we are both holding up our ends of the bargain!
