Default Garden 2017

A couple of progress shots, so far.

The first wave of Tomato seedlings have been living outside for almost two weeks now.

Getting greens set out but still some mulching to do

Perennial stuff is waking up now that the weather is warming.

I'd freak out to see an asparagus bed and to taste fresh asparagus. How wonderful!

Beautiful garden, Randall. Everything looks so healthy; tomatoes have nice thick stems! When do you dig your garlic?

Holy crap batman! You got ripe peppers already in zone 6a!

I assume you planted out pretty mature plants. If that's not the case, could you share your success plan?

I hadn't seen asparagus growing and had the stalks pictured closer together. Ready to rubber band, like celery.

Beautiful work again this year Randall.

You can tell a lot of work and love has been invested in that garden. Makes mine look like an alleyway in East LA.
