A quick picture summary of the garden this year

[mousme]

Between constantly losing my camera cable and being really busy at work, I never got around to posting pictures of the garden.

There are a lot, but here's a sampling:



Crocuses! (Croci?) The first sign of spring:



The roses flowered beautifully:



The rhubarb. If you can credit it, this was taken over a month ago:



Cherries! Yum. I need to plan better for these next year, though. I was completely caught off-guard.



This is reflects about 25% of the basil I got this year:



Cherry tomatoes, as of last weekend:



My sad, slug-eaten cucumber. I got exactly two tiny cucumbers this year:



The peppers didn't do very well, sadly:



The Big Beef tomatoes, as of this weekend:

That's about as well as the peppers ever do, IME. We don't really live in an outdoor pepper-growing climate.

Great job on the garden, it looks fantastic!

Nice pictures. They made me hungry.

Wow... looks like your garden was a raging sucess this year. I am wistfully pointing out the tomatoes in particular.

Oo, gorgeous edible things!

Very pretty! Cucumbers sometimes do better if you get a screen under them, or train them up a trellis. That way they don't lie on the ground and get mushy/slug-ridden.
