I've never had much of a green thumb, even though I grew up on the farm. In fact, with as many plants that I've killed, my parents have said I am a terrible gardener! Well, because my husband and I are planning on moving during the growing season, we wanted to have a garden, but one that would be mobile for us, so everything is in planters. We also live in a college town, with a lot of random (and sometimes intoxicated) people walking through our yard, and a lot of squirrels and rabbits too, so hopefully this is the best route.
We had planted daisies earlier from seedlings, in about early April. Now they are starting to grow like weeds!
We had also planted strawberry seeds, but nothing ever grew. So instead we put in today a live plant in the hopes it keeps growing!
Now, on the to newest additions! Banana Peppers are a favorite of the hubby, so we put four in a large planter.
Finally, there are every garden's necessity, tomatoes! My mom always had good luck with "Best Boy" tomatoes, so we have four plants, two in planters, and two in those "Topsy Turney" planters, we'll see which (if any) grow the best!
And here's a look of everything on the front porch!
I will do my best to keep everyone informed of how the garden is growing and what I did to make it grow. In fact, I may update later with my house plant exploits!
