The Garden is Growing

June 10th, 2010 by Eli

Here’s a garden update..  I never did finish weeding.  My excuse is that I am not getting enough plants to fill the space so it’s just going to fill up with weeds again.  It’s a lazy excuse, I know…but that’s basically why I haven’t finished it.  I did, however, get some plants in the area that I weeded, with the help of my mom!  Here are some photos:

Here’s a photo of the whole area.  The plants from left to right are: 2 strawberry plants, 2 different tomato plants, a raspberry plant…in front of the raspberry plant are 2 squash plants.  In front of the strawberry plants is a little pumpkin plant that I don’t think will survive.  I think something has been eating the leaves.  There was a cucumber plant to the left of the squash plants but it got trampled by little feet…

The strawberry plants:

..and we even have little strawberries sprouting up already!

The tomato plants.  One produces normal size tomatoes and the other produces cherry tomatoes…but I can’t remember which is which.

Raspberry plant:

Squash plants…looks like something may be eating these leaves:

Then we also have a little area against the back of our house that has a bunch of flowers, thanks to the previous owners.  There are two rose bushes and they’re just starting to bloom.  There are also some other flowers that I’m not sure of.

The rose bushes:

A rose and a couple of buds:

More garden updates when the fruits/veggies start growing!
