It's that time again... time to think about planting the garden. I had grand plans last year to turn a raised plot of land in my backyard into the perfect garden. However...holy sh*t, that soil is dry and packed. It's going to take a lot more work than I anticipated. Maybe it will be fabulous by next spring. Maybe.
In the meantime, it's container gardening for me again this year. Which I'm perfectly happy with!
This year my garden will feature:

This year my garden will feature:
Everbearing Strawberries. It's my first year with strawberries, but I have hopes that I do well with them. :-) {All pics via}
Heirloom Tomatoes. Honestly, these suckers aren't as pretty as other tomatoes...but the smell and taste are like none other. They are one of my garden staples.
Roma Tomatoes. These tomatoes make the best sauce. So yummy!
Jalapenos. Another staple in my garden. My dogs absolutely love them (yes, my pups are as weird as I am), so it's a race to see who can get to the peppers first - me or them.
Cubanelle Peppers. Sweet, yummy and they freeze well.
I had the tree in my front yard die this winter, so I'll be replacing it with a Weeping Cherry! It's so pretty!
Elberta Peach Tree. I'm most excited about this tree! I've wanted a peach tree for YEARS. I named the first dog that was just mine (as opposed to a family dog) Peach Blossom. The tree has special meaning to me.
Is anyone else as excited to plant their gardens as flowers as I am?!?! Please tell me I'm not the only geek!
