(Throwback Garden Photo)
It has been a while since I've done a garden update. So much has been happening in my garden this year. So, I'm going to just get into it. I adopted the no-dig method and started a few flower beds. I've learned so much this year about gardening. I still have so much to learn. I didn't plant any garlic last year. Apparently you can grow chamomile from tea bags. I acutally had no idea. I will keep you posted. I acutally planted some today!

  4. I have a love hate relationship with our veggie garden. I don't have much luck with it except for tomatoes. The perennial garden we have however is amazing this year. I think we'll stick to flowers.

  8. That sounds like it's going to be a beautiful and fulfilling garden! Sorry to hear your peppers and tomatoes didn't make it though :( If you haven't already, maybe you could try hanging vine tomatoes! I've always had a little better luck with those and it keeps them out of reach of the critters that like to pick at them!

  12. I love gardening for sure and it sounds like. you have planted a lot and I always buy seedling plants because when I grow from seeds... the plants are weak. There is nothing better than homegrown produce! I love lettuce early in the season... easy to grow and yummy!
