Jim's Garden, 2011 edition:


Cucumbers: 6 plants

Tomatoes: 10 Roma, 2 cherry

Peppers: 8 green bell peppers, 6 sweet peppers, 4 jalapeno, 4 hot Hungarian wax peppers, 3 habanero peppers, 3 colored peppers - 28 peppers total

Beans: 1 row

Cantaloupe: 4 plants

Pumpkins: 4 plants

The sunflower seeds on the far right starting to come up. The bean seeds are right next to them, but haven't sprouted much yet.



The cantaloupe plants in boxes outside the back of our fence. There are 2 plants per box.



The pumpkin plants. They are a bit on the yellow side. Jim's done some research and there some fungus plaguing pumpkin plants this year, so we'll see how they turn out.
Need my help daddy?






The dark mulch is to help keep the soil warm. It should help the tomatoes bloom faster and longer.
The herb garden:

Mint, Cilantro, basil, oregano, & sage

The tomatoes & zucchini plants have already had blooms starting on them. The beans are popping up like crazy (it's been a few days since I took the pictures above) & the sunflowers are a full row of little green plants! I'm getting excited about the all the yummy things (and other random things Jim seems to think are yummy) in the garden!! Jim does a great job planing, planting and tending to the garden. Thanks, Jim!!
