I Have a Garden
Although I live in a rooming house, I do have a small garden plot out next to the back patio. One of my roommates has a marijuana plant that takes up about a third of the plot. I have the other two thirds.
I'm growing three tomato plants. Fruit is on one already. And I have about 6 squash plants; three zuchini plants, two dollar squash (AKA patty pan). I have two rows of sunflowers in back (short ones, about
3-4 feet, the fluffy kind like Van Gohg painted). I've got two rows of orange marigolds in front.
I also have a big thick row in between the squash and the tomatoes in which I've planted torch plants (AKA Mexican Sunflowers, about 5-6 feet high) which will have dozens and dozens of orange flowers in about 6 weeks. Among the torch plants I've planted ornamental blue wheat, something I've never tried growing before.
I will post a photo when everything is in bloom in a few weeks.
