my garden had been on hold till i got my pond completed & just yesterday i ran to a couple of my favorite stops & got some 1/2 priced plants! spent $10.50 for about 20 tomato & pepper plants from one local organic grower. i may run & get some more heirlooms from them next weekend depending on the space left. ran to Leap Frog Farms intending to get some pond plants but instead spent about 1 1/2 hr just enjoying looking at all the stuff she has & talking/helping a few of the other people look for the plants they wanted. (not organized but i love going to Freya's just to see the interesting stuff she sells, always find good stuff) spent about $60 & got lots of freebies for plants while getting 1 plant for the pond-Marshmallow.
then on to the big greenhouse to see if they had pond plants left-not much. did get a nice pot of Taro that i have to re-pot for pond use. buy one get one free on annuals & veggie packs so bought a couple snap dragons pack & got some nice habanero peppers that are in bloom in those tiny packs! also grabbed an oxheart tomato. don't know why no one around here seems to grow oxhearts except me. their loss....my gain!
i have some volunteer tomatoes, potatoes, a few onions & garlic i had started from seed last year that came back for this year so i am not without a few of my own started plants. i had started some melons, cukes & some other plants but they never got moved out to the ground till this weekend. boy am i really behind the 8 ball this year.
