who does a garden each year

every year we a grow a garden, this year we did a small one just 3 tomato, some cucumbers, and some hot peppers. we've done potatos, corn (well attempted), watermelons, many differernt kinds of tomatos, green /hot peppers, and lettuce.

does anybody else here do one, and what do you grow?

I started a flower bed last year (mostly Lillies). I've got some more stuff on order (more lillies)...

I have 2 tomato plants and a couple of cucumber plants, but I only planted them 'cause someone gave then to me (and planted them late). There's really not a good place in my yard for full sun. Lots of trees provide shade that isn't conducive to a garden. The best place for a garden for me would be in the middle of the back yard. That's not gonna happen.

If my "experiment" this year with the 2 tomato and 2 cuke plants work out, I may expand my "garden". I've got an Iris and Rose of Sharon plated with the veggies right now

I actually can't wait to get a home so I can do the lawn and garden, its pretty lame but I really enjoy that stuff. I like making the home look nice on the outside as well as the inside. I used to love working outside at my parents house, its always a great feeling when your all done and you can look at how good the house looks.

Plus my girl loves flowers (not many woman who don't) so she won't mind me spicing up the front of the house

I used to when I was a child. Now that I've got a house, I'll start again.

It's too late in the summer now, and I'm too busy to focus on the outside just yet. But come fall I'll probably do some fall perennial planting (suggestions?).

Come spring I'll go crazy with the veggies. I love fresh tomatoes.

Oh and I've been growing a little herb garden in pots preparing for the move !!

I did a vegetable and herb garden for the first time this year. My father does one every year but this is my first. I went a tad overboard though and planted 24 Tomatoe plants. But I love bruschetta and tomatoe salad so they'll all get used.

Pics tommorrow.

we also grow tomatoes and green chilli and eggplants
The best part is picking them off the plants and enjoying it at dinner.
