It’s that time again! What am I going to plant in my garden this year.
New experiment this year: Eggplant! I’ve never grown it before and I’ve recently learned to love it. Plus the plants are gorgeous.
One Hop Plant (total of three now)
6-8 Asparagus (starting a new bed)
6 Strawberries
3 tomato plants: (Early Girl, Beefsteak, and some kind of heirloom wild card)
4 Sweet Bell Peppers (2 red, 1 purple, 1 yellow)
1 other sweet pepper
(No spicy peppers this year. I grew so many last year, which I canned, froze, and dried. I won’t need spicy peppers for quite awhile.)
Sunflowers
2 Zucchini Plants
2 Acorn Squashes
2 Melons (Perhaps another Ananas D’Amerique Melon.)
2 Cucumbers
Spinach
Some Other Kind Of Lettuce
Jerusalem Artichokes (if I can find them. People around here don’t seem to sell them.)
Peas
Leeks
French Green Beans
Stringless Green Beans
Radishes
Carrots
Potatoes
Basil
That’s it! What are you planning?
just stumbled here by chance : think twice about planting jerusalem artichokes, they’re a nightmare to get rid of once they’ve settled in! the “potatoes” grow at >50 cm deep and multiply so fast…
Claire, thanks. I’d heard about that. I’m going to put them in a container.
Claire, ,I have a few tubers if you would like some. They grow wild here, I just discovered las ‘weeds’. They also grow about 9-10 ft tall. They are interesting plants!
