I took some pictures of my garden and I thought I would post some to share:

These are my strawberries.

These are 5 tomato plants, they are kinda close together, but they are making some tomatoes.

Carrots in the front yard:

My bigger tomato plant in the front yard, it's bigger since it has more room:

My Morning Glory is just taking off and vining up my stakes! I can't wait for the first flower!

Artichoke PLant:

Oregano

Basil

Beets

My Green Bean that is stunted.

That's cool that you have integrated them in with the rest of the landscaping greenery. I can't really do very much of that because where I have my landscaping nothing really gets full sun. Everything is either shade or part shade.

I finally got around to taking pictures of grandma and grandpa's garden.

Tomato plants, I believe they have 91 to be exact.

More cabbage than they know what to do with.

I think this is squash coming in.

Peppers galore.

These are half-runner beans, they will grow up the corn stalk.

Other beans they are already picking.

The plan this year is to sell excess at a little stand in the front yard to raise money for my grandma's church, which has been financially troubled as of late.

Thomez, while those squash flowers are still closed, or not open a whole lot on the end of the squash, pick them from the squash, wash them out, stuff them with cheese, and then deep fry them.

Su-weet.

Haha, that's called a garden here bro! But admittedly that is a big garden. They work in it almost daily, weeding, watering, staking, blah blah. It keeps them busy at least.
