This Year’s vegetable garden





       This is my vegetable garden for the summer.   At the edge I have planted all my herbs.   Rosemary, red leafed basil, chocolate mint, thyme, oregano, marjoram, curry, and two different kinds of parsley.   I have a few tomato and pepper plants, as well as acorn and summer squash, and celery.   Behind the trellis are three cucumber plants, that I hope will climb upward.   The rest of my garden is planted with corn and peas from seed.   I am hoping that the peas will use the corn stocks as a sort of trellis.

       My garden also contains a perennial chives plant.   It’s at the left and is now blooming with purple flowers.   There is also a patch of day lillies next to the chives.  I’ll take more pictures of this garden as the vegetables grow.
