These are my 'trashcan taters." Yes, I'm growing potatoes in a trashcan; it's one of my experiments this year and a first for me. I bought organic potatoes, waited til they sprouted, then cut them and planted them in the bottom of a plastic trashcan that was falling apart at the top. Of course, I drilled drainage holes in the bottom first. :) I took these pictures 3 days ago and they have already grown so much since then.
My first tomatillo bloom. I have one more on my other tomatillo plant now. This is my first year growing tomatillos.
On the right, my sugar snap peas. On the left, my mystery squash (are they pumpkins, zuchhini, cucumbers?)
My first Sausage tomatoes of the year.
I don't know off the top of my head what kind these are. I would have to look at my garden map, but, are they not adorable?
My mater plants against the house are bigger and bushier than those I have planted along the fence. They get more sun here and residual heat from the stucco house.
Broccoli - another first for me to grow this year. They are healthy and strong, and at 90 days since I planted the seeds, only 2 of the 13 plants are *just* starting to grow little broc heads.
