Garden 2015

I love having a garden

I love going out and getting fresh tomatoes, bell peppers, etc from my backyard.

I think one reason I love it so much is because I always thought I would kill anything I ever planted,

I tried to grow flowers in my room when I was little and killed all of them... lol!

I can't take credit for this garden though, my Sweet Husband planted it all.

I did help pick out the plants.

This picture was taken about a week or two after planting.

We have (from top to bottom)

Four kinds of tomatoes, four bell pepper plants, one jalapeno plant, one cilantro plant, four strawberry plants, and one lemon cucumber plant.

These pictures are from July 12th.

We've picked four large tomatoes and a few strawberries so far.

 Our fruit trees are growing well!

 Our berry plants and watermelon plant,

funny story with the berries:

A berry bush from our neighbor's yard grew through our fence, after trying to kill it because we thought it was a weed a few years ago, we decided to cut it off and transplant it last year.

It grew and grew and grew but didn't produce anything of substance, everything was dried out by the time we saw any berries.

But this year it has a million little berries, and all along we thought it was a raspberry plant but Saturday I saw that a lot of the berries were black... lol! It's a blackberry plant! 

We picked a least 50 berries Saturday!

And they are so yummy!
