What backyard plants do you have?

We have trees and my garden. Need to keep edible producing plants away from car exhaust so the backyard is where to have the garden. We have a nice lawn and soon a water feature if we are lucky. Herbs are another wonderful thing to add and maybe some sweet smelling flowering bushes or plants. That would be about it.

We have plent of plants in our backyard...different kinds, but i dont read books of plants related, i just plant them and love them, and fortunately they just grow beautifully.

My back yard is for the kids and dogs so nothing is growing out there except the cedar trees, hazelnut tree and grape vines. My front yard is landscaped with a wide variety of plants from roses to irises and water plants in my ponds. I also have a peach tree in the front.

I like flowers and have a flower garden.

I have 2 apple trees, a bunch of tomato plants, 2 zuchinni plants, a whole lot of different flowers, some strawberries, some corn, some peppers, some green beans and others. I do a LOT of gardenoing of vegetables and flowers. I read from these 2 web sites mostly. No magazines as these are free and easily available to read at any time. http://www.gardenguides.com/ http://forums.gardenweb.com/forums/ http://www.thelilygarden.com/HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB!!~

I love planting, but I have no backyard for planting. I have some small pots to grow some plants like green onions which are my favorite. I always use my vegetable scissors to cut my green onions when I cook noodles or some other food. They are very easy to grow in the pots and will still grow where they are cut.

I have asthma complicated by allergies. I can not be in a garden because I get very sick. My mom has a veggetable garden every year for me. I go over her house and get fresh veggie without having to be in a garden. I think it is great when people talk about their flowers or veggie gardens. When I was younger I had a small garden but now I can't be any where near a garden.

hi there! our backyard is the haven of vegetable plants such as eggplants, string beans, squash and pechay, I think it's very useful to have them planted coz we can save a lot in buying vegetables...

I'm not much for gardening any more. But I do have a tomato plant in a big pot with dreams of vine ripened tomatoes this summer. My partner does all the yard work, as I'm no longer able. We have a raspberry patch that keeps us in berries all summer and the freeze stocked for winter. The rest of our plants are flowers and shrubs.

Right now we dont really have a backyard since we are in a townhouse fourplex. I do have some elephant ears in front of our back windows. I also have a little garden in front of our walkway. I have some caladiums and ferns as well as a couple of vines growing on the lattace in front of the patio. I like the vine because it is called Moonflower since it blooms at night. It is a bigh white flower with a slight sweet scent. When we lived at a house I had a lot of flowers. Some were annuals that I had to plant every year and others were some that came up every year. It is usually hot and dry in Houston so a lot of flowers dont do well here.

weeds & trees & a few weed trees. I can kill anything, but I do seem to keep trees alive better than anything else. I have 2 trees in the back that I planted, 2 that came with the house & then a bunch of weed trees between the fences. At least I don't have the apartment dwellers behind me able to easily look in my yard!

i have pretty much something of everything. especially succulents. i just love gardening but dont get around to read all the magazines i buy, so i dont buy it anymore.

We have a garden at the back of our house. We plant vegetables in any kind. I dont know about that but my sister in law gives me a magazine in titled gardening.

I love to plant vegetables and fruit trees in our backyard like okra,camote tops,alugbati,papaya,some sugarcane,tomatoes,beans,squash and any other medicinal plants. We always get vegetables in our backyard every time i cook. It's very healthy especially when fresh. I don't prefer any magazines on how to raise backyard plants. I guess i have a 'green thumb' that's what they call it. All plants that i've planted grows.
