I'm looking forward to growing my herbs and lone tomato plant. I learned a lesson last year. I bought several raised long planters on wheels. I planted the tarragon along with parsley and rosemary. The tarragon ended up tasting like parsley! Won't make that mistake again.

We have a freeze warning for tonight. We are having to wait to start plants until we get back from my bonus daughter's wedding.

I haven't done a veggie garden in a few years. But I'm doing one this year. I use "self watering" containers. Today I planted tomatoes (Roma, Early Girl and Champion), bell peppers, parsley and basil.

I also want to plant a couple winter squash, Buttercup. I have the seeds, am thinking about a good spot for it.

Cwc, one of my neighbors noticed that my container was unused the past couple of years and offered to buy it from me. I had an extra and gave it to her with the request that she get the plants for me. She got them from a local hardware store. They had just put them out and looked pretty nice.

I didn't know about Gesthemane so I looked it up. It looks interesting.

Now that we are done dashing west and north, my husband has been planting the garden. On Saturday, I bought a Dester Indiana tomato plant, two purple cherry tomato plants, and a red cherry tomato plant, along with a dill plant. Those are in the garden. We had four organic potatoes that were past eating, so my husband planted those. Two years ago, we got a nice potato crop; last year's did not do well. My husband also started some Dester tomatoes, but those are not large enough for transplant yet. The green beans are planted. The cucumbers for pickles are planted. In addition to the dill plant I bought, we had some volunteer from last year come up. We are also trying fairy tale pumpkin again. My husband is considering planting some Early Girls tomatoes.

The garden was a bit slowed down when we got back from our trip to the wedding in San Diego because Scott started hoeing, and the ground suddenly exploded as two larger baby bunnies and two smaller ones bounded out of a nest. Scott managed to put the two smaller ones back, but the best he could do with the larger ones was herd them away from our road on which people drive too fast. He left the garden alone for five days or so after that, then discovered that the bunnies are all gone.
