Garden: Version 2013
I am attempting a garden once again. This time I've planted more seeds than ever before, but I don't yet have a place in my rented yard to put them. Hopefully that will be remedied within a couple weeks with a garden box.
I'm excited for my tomatoes. If all else fails, I want my tomatoes to work. I also have peppers, peas, basil, cucumbers, sunflowers, zinnias, marigolds and I plan on planting onions and other flowers as soon as the weather is right outside.
My 3 year-old is really excited about the plants. I let her pick out one of the planting kits for her to take responsibility of. She picked more sunflowers and planted a handful of the seeds in one pot. I think it's time to repot them.
Now if only we could get the weather to cooperate. Winter, go away! We want the sun!
Little plants in pots are such hopeful things. Early in our marriage we had many, many small potted plants. I made a special frame to put in our kitchen window that would hold 10-15 small pots. It seems that as our number of children increased - our pots decreased. The care and feeding of kids came first. Hopefully you can care for both.
