Garden 7-8

Garden 7-8

I planted a small spring garden and most of it survived the tree that fell during the tornado. Later, really too late, but our spring weather was hot, I planted a few tomato plants and that is all. I'm not going to plant a big garden this year because I will not have time to take care of it.

Here are some pictures of my garden

Lettuce planted March 14

Zinnia Flower and Lettuce Flower Buds

Peppermint

Catnip

Sunflowers - Two plants that came up from seed that was dropped by birds

Carrots blooming - These are last year's carrots.

About half of my potato plants died. I suspect that was because the tree fell over them. The potatoes that survived yielded stunted spuds with thick skins. Not only that, but the tomatoes that I planted in the tree struck area produced flavorless fruit.
