A quick garden tour…
The blueberry bushes from last year. We are still picking off the flowers to encourage growth of the bushes instead of berry production.
In the back row are peas and my new zig-zag trellis system. In the front are some beans and in the bottom left corner is a butternut squash.
This is the new grape trellis system and some ornamental bushes/flowers near the fence line.
My double height raised bed with potatoes.
The garlic, lettuce, cucumber and tomato bed.
Teagan on the tomato side of the bed. She told me to take a new picture so she could be in it.
The cabbage, brocolli and misc bed. This bed stays under cover to cut down on the cabbage worms. Last year they decimated the cabbage that were not under cover.
Thank you for sharing your pictures! It is always so great to see lots of pictures of other local gardens. Coming along nicely!!
Thanks for your posts. This is my first year attempting a Chicago garden, and I use your site as a litmus test for what my tiny little plot should be doing. Good luck with your growing!
Your beds are all so neat and orderly. I salute you! What tomatoes are you growing? I have some heirlooms in containers on my balcony garden. Cheers!
Thanks! Check the planting diary for types.
