Here are a few photos of my garden. It has been a work in progress since I put it in 4 years ago. I started with the enclosed 20'x20 area with 2 raised beds 4'x 12' each with overhead sprinklers for seedlings and 1/2" soaker hoses. All of my beds are amended with PWP (chicken poop) and my most favorite Happy Frog soil conditioner, I get mine at Baker Brothers in Phoenix but you can find it at http://www.foxfarmfertilizer.com./ In my raised bed I have Sequoia Strawberries which I planted last spring, they are filled with growing berries. They made it thru the summer last year(My garden has the wall to the west which provides afternoon shade.In the front of the berries I still have some buttercruch lettuce, carrots and collard greens. I give it about a week more and then I will plant more strawberries!
My Beautiful Sweet Peas!!! This was the first time I tried growing them. They did beautifully. I started them from seed in October and mid February I got flowers. They smell divine. To the right of the peas is my peppers, 2 red , 2 yellows, 2 orange and I jalapeno. I have to be honest, I have never had luck with peppers but I am not giving up. I have had success with jalapenos though. I watered and fertilized them with my favorite, organic fertilizer ( I will post the name later ,sorry I forgot it)
This is my extension garden formally grass, that I added last spring. I was garden crazy and just did not have enough space. I just planted my tomatoes last Sunday: 2 Golden Pears ( I have such great luck here in Phoenix with these little tomatoes. 4 Romas (You can never have too many Romas they are amazing for tomato sauce.) 1 Brandywine, 1 White Zebra(I have never tried this one before, I will keep you all posted). 2 Eary Girls and 1 sweet 100's.
