What Do You Grow In Your Garden?

We plant lots of tomatoes. The kids love cherry tomatoes and grape tomatoes, and the yellow ones are acid-free. We plant green pepper because its the only vegetable hubby will eat and we plant cucumbers. We've tried planting eggplant but something eats them

I have a large backyard, but zero will to do any gardening.

I once took my artificial house plants outside to gently wash them down as they were dusty. I left them to dry and forgot about them and they melted in the sun. My kids thought it was hysterical that their mother could kill artificial plants.....
But I am very spoiled by all the local elderly gents who bring me tons and tons of tomatoes, apples, peaches etc. every year.

OMG you made me laugh! I'm bad but not that bad!

Don't worry Meeko-I can't grow anything either. Big black thumbs here. I DID kill a cactus many years ago. Put it on a shelf and apparently forgot about it. When we moved a year later, I found it! Ooops.

I would love a garden. We have a fairly good sized yard, but it is full of trees. There is only one section that gets a good amount of sun and that is on the boulevard where people wait for the city bus. Every year I say I'm going to rent a plot from the city and every year I forget to call. When I remember to call, they are all full. One day I'll convince dh that we should cut down 2 trees on the side of the house for a garden, but it'll cost big $$$$. I think our neighbor said it was over $1,000 to take down one of his. I don't think I can produce enough food to cover the cost of removing 2 of them!

After being written up last year for tomato plants, I'm not planting anything this year.

I think I will add broccoli, cauliflower and cucumbers this year. Maybe some lettuce & kale. I forgot to mention in my 1st post that I have a huge herb garden. I plant a ton of basil-different varieties, cilantro, parsley, dill, rosemary, & oregano. I dry it for use all winter and make a lot of pesto!

I would like to try onions and garlic...not sure how to do that, I think garlic gets planted in the fall? I will have to google that

I'd love to see your front yard!

I'll take a photo when they are in bloom (first the snow has to melt )

here is an old one from a few years ago

The neighbour with the grass has now covered his yard with pebble stone.
