kitchen garden12 viewsSquash looks like it's taking over the garden -- what you can't see very well are the carrots, asparagus and onions that are growing around the edges of the squash plants. Tall cage is tomatoes and the far left plants are several types of peppers. I didn't realize how HUGE the squash plants would get. Most of their leaves are 8-12 inches wide.

mostly basil10 viewsMint and basil plants. I had tons of lovely basil plants last year, but didn't pull them in one time during a storm and they all drowned. I'm starting over again, so far the baby plants are doing well.

container garden planters11 viewsthese haven't been moved to the big garden yet -- waiting to see how well they handle the shade/sun. From top down, chives and mint, jalapenos from last year's plants, 2 types of baby lettuces and cilantro and flat leaf parsley. I've tried cilantro several times and it always dies once it gets 3 inches tall. I'm hoping this time it survives.
