My garden has been planted, weeded and mulched. Hopefully the fruits of my labor pay off with a nice yield in a short time. Here's some recent pics of our little raised bed.
The entire bed contains: basil, cilantro, rosemary, green zebra tomatoes, grape tomatoes, zucchini, and peppers. I've also planted some marigolds to help with natural pest control and pollination (it should attract our friends the bees and butterflies).
My basil is doing very well... so far we've had two caprese salads off of these tiny plants. I keep thinking about the wonderful pesto we'll be able to make once this basil really takes off!
In the right corner is my zucchini which looks a little leggy and like a weed. I am going to train it to climb the trellis so hopefully it won't take up too much of my garden.
And, finally, here's a pic of my rosemary plant. I've had little success growing (and over-wintering) rosemary in my pots so I am hopeful that this plant grows well in the bed. So far it's alive but we'll see as the days go on...
