How does (did) your garden grow?



I did have fun with the garden this year! Some of my plants came from a friends garden, some were seeds, some came all the way from Arizona through the mail, and one came from our Montana trip. I thought I had taken better photos, but these are all I could find.
Sue B., this one is for you, and anyone else that may or may not have made fun of my watermelon plant. Yum!!




If you noticed the conspicuous lack of red tomatoes, I'm sure you also noticed the critter in the background foraging, hence the lack of red tomatoes. We did get lots of tomatoes, which kept us in fresh salsa. Mmmm. The yellow flowers are "blanket flowers", Gaillardia x grandiflora, and this photo was taken late in the season, so it doesn't do it justice, - it bloomed continually all summer and late into the fall!



Some strawberries in our rock wall.

Top left to bottom right, magic carpet thyme, Mountain Gold-Alyssum, and Snow in Summer.
The tomato plants got huge and looked very pretty hanging down over the wall.

We planted the wildflowers from my cousins wedding. We loved the poppies and the bachelor buttons.

We had wonderful sunflowers too!!!
Some things we look forward to planting are tree's, blue berries, raspberries, grapes, and a garden. Tomatoes, potatoes, carrots......

'til next post.
