Gardening Update 5/14
I haven’t posted about my garden in awhile, huh?! I guess it’s about time! 🙂
Before you look at the pictures, you have to remember that I’m only home on weekends, which means that’s the only time I can love and care for my plants. So compared to many other gardeners, I’m still very behind! With that being said, are you ready for the garden tour? (My mom and sister get to go through it live every weekend 😉 )
First, you’ll see the adorable blueberries! I have a couple bunches growing, but the plant is still very young. This is my first year for blueberries!
And to the right (of my house, not the post), you’ll see some of my blackberries! Look at all the blooms 🙂 I can’t wait to pick and can them this July (and maybe August).
And look what’s growing under that bush! A Lucy cat! 😉 She’ll lay out there all day long…
If you squint super hard, you’ll see some of my lettuce growing. I think there’s two different kinds. I’ve never liked the taste of garden-grown lettuce, but I’m giving it a try again.
And here you’ll see some Cheddar Cauliflower plants. I’m really not found of the name, but Michael made me buy them. Cheddar is one of the foods I disgust (except when I occasionally crave Goldfish and Cheezits). But orange cauliflower… we’ll see. The cauliflower is also surrounded by some onion plants.
And do you know what this is ^^? Radish! Of course. They are super simple to grow… which is why I always grow them 😉 In case everything else fails, I know those hearty radishes will grow.
And here are some the tomatoes (and a pepper plant)! Like I said, I’m behind on gardening so the tomatoes are still small. Some have flowers though!
And last, but not least…. we have my potatoes! They are my favorite. I have 4 bins full of them 🙂 I’m not one to rush my summer along (obviously!), but I’m anxious to see the yield at the end of the season. We’ll end the tour here because this post is quite lengthy! I do have some other plants, like broccoli, cucumbers (pickles!), squash, and zucchini. You’ll see them in a future post, promise!
