Since I was asked again today, I thought I’d list what’s in my garden, in order of the planted rows. I have a diagram on graph paper that I’ll eventually scan and post.<\/p>\n

I had a few extra tomato plants I ended up putting in random places.<\/p>\n

So, from furthest from the gate to closest to the gate:<\/p>\n

Asparagus. Just planted it this spring, and it’s doing fairly well.<\/p>\n

A couple small Egyptian Onions in a space between the asparagus and the…<\/p>\n

Rhubarb. 5 – 6 plants that I relocated this spring followed by 5 – 6 plants that I relocated here last spring. They are holding their own but I think they should be doing better.<\/p>\n

Planting tubs:<\/b><\/p>\n

1) Nasturtium. Slow start but in full bloom now. Planted a whole packet of seeds and ended up with three plants. At first there was one, then more came up later, so there’s a big one and a couple small ones.<\/p>\n

2) Catnip planted last year. It’s doing well, but I can’t touch it or Mila (my cat) will attack my hand when I get inside, even if I scrub my hands. Once in awhile I bring her in a sprig. She loves it of course.<\/p>\n

3) Chamomile and Basil. The chamomile comes back every year, this would be the third year since I planted the seeds. It’s a little sparse this year and I may have ruined my streak by cutting it back too much. The basil is strange. I planted a whole packet where the chamomile left a space and a whole bunch of seedlings sprouted…and several weeks later, they have remained the size of newly sprouted seedlings. Will be giving them (and everything else) a boost soon.<\/p>\n

4) Dill. I planted a packet of dill seeds. They sprouted and then they gradually disappeared before growing very much. So I bought about a dozen dill plants. I put half in here and half in another part of the garden. The ones in this tub have been disappearing and I’m down to one and a very weak one. The other half are doing great!<\/p>\n

~ I think after this season I am going to add some good soil and compost to these tubs.<\/p>\n
