This Week In My Garden

For your viewing pleasure. I love to sit on the porch and just look at the plants. It makes me happy to see them. And yes, I do talk to them. I tell them every morning how beautiful they are. I water it every day that it doesn’t rain, and give the plants a dose of Miracle Grow once a week, twice if it rains a lot.

The geranium started blooming this week.

Fabgrandpa loves moss rose. It will bloom all summer.
IMG_2191
The cucumbers are growing wild!
IMG_2193
It won’t be long now.

Hanging on…

These tomatoes will be the first ones to ripen.

Sweet potato still growing. I’m going to have to find a trellis for it soon.

Bright pink petunia. This one is in a hanging basket.
IMG_2202
MMMMMM….Basil. It smells so good. I have cut it twice and it is growing fast.
IMG_2203
One little eggplant so far. I hope it makes some more.
IMG_2206
Red bell pepper.
IMG_2207
This tomato plant for so heavy it fell over. I had to reposition the branches.
IMG_2209
Purple petunias add some color to the front row.
IMG_2213
Flat leaf parsley. I like the curly parsley better but couldn’t find any.
IMG_2214
Basil again. I love basil in just about anything.
IMG_2218
A purple heirloom tomato. I can’t wait for it to ripen!
IMG_2220
I love this garden. The brick and board idea was a good one.
IMG_2223
I think it makes the porch more attractive, and a nice place to sit and watch the day go by.

Do you have a garden this year? What are you growing in it?

      Monique, you don’t need a yard. If you have a sunny porch, patio, or balcony, get growing! All it takes is some pots, some potting soil and some plants or seeds. Keep it watered daily and give it Miracle Grow weekly.

    I think I covet your tomatoes, lol. And I agree with FabGrandpa, I like that Moss Rose. I didn’t know it was called that, but I love the color!

    Your container garden is fabulous! Veggies, flowers, and herbs–you’ve got it all. I hope you’ll post updates as the season progresses so I can garden vicariously through your photos. 🙂

    Your garden looks great! I especially love all the containers lined up on the rail.

    Thanks for linking up with Green Thumb Thursday. We hope to see you again this week!

    What a nice garden – I’d love to have flowers and vegetables – sight for sore eyes on a dark, cold gray and drizzly day like today!
