I've heard from
master gardeners that Mother's Day is the right day to start gardening in this area. So, I took this weekend to get my garden cleaned up at home and transplant some plants from our collection at UMD that are itching for a home since our beds aren't ready at the
Public Health Garden. The garden is a good collection of containers and my little plot from last year. I've also expanded with two make-shift raised beds for potatoes and sweet onions (not shown because I put the onions in today). Here are some photos:
Here is a list of what you see pictured:
- Kale and collards from last year (still going!)
- Broccoli
- Rhubarb
- Tomato plants
- Eggplant
- Green beans
- Peas
- Lettuce (container)
- Herb mix (container)
- Container tomato
- Container eggplant (I have a lot of eggplant, we'll see how they do)
- Potatoes
- Sweet onions
In the front yard, we have containers of the following:
- Strawberries
- Rosemary and more herbs
I also have seeds starting for cukes, melons, peppers, and okra.
It is going to be a delicious season. I hope you got started with some plants this weekend too... containers and otherwise!
