I transplanted these yesterday. I hope the magic of the EarthBox does its thing with the seedlings. The zucchini plants were especially leggy when I bought them on Sunday, so….fingers crossed.
Oh, and let’s not forget the pumpkin. I’m getting ready to put that one directly in the ground right now!

is still my start date for tackling the roses, looking forward to it. Have decided would love to start a vege garden too, It’s the middle of winter here so can’t grow much but will look into what I can plant and maybe how I can prepare my gardens, will take before and after pictures :)

but will on July 1st when my roses will need pruning, looking forward to it but will take time, trying to get other things in order before then so I can pay them special attention :P

I actually already have gardens but need to maintain these better and would love to start growing vegetables. Would love to get my kids involved with this venture too. It’s very cold here atm so not much I can really do in the vege garden. I plan to start pruning the roses in a couple of weeks, all 100+ of them ouch

Now, I need some soil, some seeds or seedlings, and water. Sounds simple enough.

Well, a long time has passed since my last entry on this and I guess a few things have certainly changed… I now have a house with a little yard, and have done a whole lot of prep work this year to add more soil (organic no less), and some fertilizer (all natural mushroom manure), and have planted a few things – just a couple of hostas which are doing well, and some lily of the valley which is not doing well at all.
I also put a few perennials in the side flower bed – daffs and crocuses and a few other spring things (will need to add some later bloomers as well or it will be a very seasonal flowerbed that’s for sure).
Then, dare I dream… cherry tomatoes?

Tomatoes & peppers are planted!
Tomorrow I’m going to plant the cucumbers, lettuce, carrots & radishes.
I think this may go okay.
Also planted some flowers out front, but that’s so new to me I don’t know how it will go. But it felt good to plant.

but mostly good!
A couple of the plants that were transplants – one of the yarrows and a black-eyed susan – are dying on me. So I just ordered some from the company I got the bee balm (which are doing wonderfully) from – at half price! They’re having some kind of Memorial Day sale. Just hope I have enough room for everybody!

I want a garden with anything and everything. I want to have fruits, vegetables, and flowers. I don’t know what all plants are able to grow in Indiana.
