This is how our jumbled, tight-for-space garden is looking right about now. Not everything is labeled in the above photo, because the bed really is jumbled. There's a basil hiding between this and that, and a few tomatoes in the back, and even a watermelon over yonder. The watermelon is an insane idea for such a small spot, but we're going vertical with it, or, at least, hope to.The empty space along the front of the bed used to hold cute, yellow violas that were an impulse buy waaay back when the first flowers were hitting the market, tempting saps like myself. The violas had to go to make room for the veggies.
But I'm notoriously cheap (or you could say economical), so the yellow violas got a second life in containers.Yeah, yellow violas and white geraniums together make my inner designer and outer hort snob retch, but the geraniums were free, and, like I said, I'm cheap! I'll tolerate this combination until something else free comes along. Plants are expensive!
Little baby celery stalks. Aren't they cute?
Bad flowers - mizuna (L) and arugula (R) are bolting. These annual greens are on their way out. Sad face.
Good flowers - tomatillos are in our future. Happy face!Urban Gardening 2.0 - Late April
