Seed Exchange!

I'm going to the seed exchange on Sunday with [livejournal.com profile] ai731! Whee!

The problem is that I have WAY more garden ideas than I actually have room in the garden. Uh, oops?

Part of me is squeeing and declaring "I want lettuce and carrots and tomatoes and peppers and onions and ooh! maybe I should try broccoli again, and what about chives and leeks and potatoes and of course I'll need several varieties of squash and zucchini and I wonder if cucumbers can grow in this climate and..."

The other part of me is trying desperately to put on the brakes: "Uh, yeah. Where exactly were you planning to plant all that?"

Eesh.

What about window boxes for the herbs and smaller stuff? Can you plant stuff against the fence or shed and get it to grow up it?

*nod* Last year I grew beans in big pots on the front porch.

I have to invest in some large pots. I think it's the only way I'll be able to get some of what I want to grow.
