Garden pix



Heirloom tomato seedlings - from twelve seeds stared in march > ten sprouts after two weeks > these three 2 1/2 " survivors. The tallest one is a double.

window box - sugar snap peas on the outside flanked by morning glories seedlings, ginger(not sprouted - an experiment), forget - me - nots on inside. round white pot - nasturtiums
The vegetable garden. See below for labels

Cucumbers are "calypso", carrots are purple dragon, eggplants are traditional & ghostbuster. peas are sugar snap I think. plans are:
1. Fix the fence! We have a ground hog now :( Catfish wants to eat it, but I don't want her to get herself maimed in the process.
2. get netting & construct a cage for the strawberries to keep the squirrels out.
3. put up string for the beans/peas to climb

baby lettuce

cucumber!

pumpkin

The first strawberry that is almost ripe!

green beans that I need to put up strings for...

hedge o' strawberries

front garden. don't feel like labeling. plans:
1. transplant phlox to side garden
2. cut daffodils when brown/yellowed

peony buds

unknown native(I think) plant. it's like an upright lambs' ear, with bright pink blooms. it spreads like crazy.


Side garden. See below for labels.

Same on each side. My current plans are :
1. moving some phlox form the font garden and planting them around the egdes.
2. Putting some morning glories(or other climber) in the back.
3. If I can find a home for those extra eggplants(want some?), putting some mint in their pace. Which will be contained in some way, so it doesn't take over everything.
4. Trim back the cherry tree overhead.

*Poppies are California Twister. Packet :

Unknown silvery plant, that came from a neighbors leaf pile. After I find out what it is I'll decide where to put it.
Unknown ground cover plant

Lemon balm(that is overtaking the pot!) and basil seedlings
