Finally! I normally do it from seeds and plant it in April. This year I just didn't get around to it due to our spring break vacation and then a string of rainy weekends.
I bought the plants last weekend but was busy during the week so I only just put them in the ground. I planted Japanese eggplant, several different types of peppers, tomatoes, cucumbers, and yellow squash, along with basil, parsley, thyme, oregano, and dill. I have a lot of room left in the beds so I'm going to go to Home Depot tomorrow to see what plants they have left. I need zucchini definitely and then I'll be happy with whatever else I can find at this point.

@Courtlynn I have 2 big raised garden beds. They are both like half full which is why I need to go buy some more stuff tomorrow. I may just wind up with more tomatoes and squash. haha

Glad to hear you got it done. You need some strawberries and pumpkins and potatoes and watermelon.

@NJChicaa Yum sweet potatoes sound good.I bet your parrot and any other critter outside enjoyed the mini pumpkins. Hopefully HD has your sweet potatoes and maybe even something else as well

I don't have enough space for pumpkins or watermelon unfortunately. I did wind up with those little mini pumpkins one year. The seeds got into the garden from the compost and started growing. My parrot loves those little pumpkins so she was thrilled to have so many to chew up. I did sweet potatoes one year. I'll def buy them again if HD has them.

Somehow I am not so good with vegetables. You will soon get enough to share them with the whole myLot community

You were exercising a green thumb.

I also love gardening too. And I have a beautiful view of my landscape, it's relaxing seeing green and other plants, isn't it?
