We’ve gone a little crazy with the gardening this year. Below the cut, what I’m growing in the flower beds and what D’s growing in the veggie garden. I’ve skipped trees and shrubs unless we planted them this year, and I omitted the houseplants, of which there are many. We’re in Zone 5, northern IL, USA and we live on a 3.5 acre farmette.
I’m really happy to have so much space to garden in.
