This spring's garden



So we have almost everything planted.  Still waiting on an order of strawberry plants from a friend and we will be putting in some sugar snap peas as soon as they sprout.  But for now, in this flower bed we have rosemary there on the right.  It is several years old and REALLY likes that spot.  Along with it we have tea roses planted in front of the windows, then basil, cilantro, parsley, lavender, and bee balm put in around the roses.  

In this bed, we have aloe on the left end, watermelon under the right window, mint on the right end, and we will put the strawberries under the window unit, then the sugar snap peas will fill in.

And the main bed has marigolds with beets between on the far left, then tomatoes with carrots around them.  Blackberries across the back, onions in front of them.  The second line of marigolds has spinach between and lettuce beside.  Then comes the leeks and okra.  The back right corner has blue berries.


So we shall see how things go this year.  I must go get some new hoses for the drip system today since our set up is so different.  For now Kerrie is using a watering can and a sprinkler.
