I mentioned at the end of my post yesterday that Kyle and I had plans for a garden. We have talked about it for years but usually have a tendency to kill plants haha. We bit the bullet yesterday and went to home depot for supplies. We got a raised cedar garden bed and seeds to plant. I also found an awesome herb garden to plant as well.
Thankfully all of the vegetables we got need full sun so it works out perfectly. We planted: carrots, spinach, broccoli, onions, cucumbers and green beans. Fingers crossed they grow!
Here is the herb garden I got:
Thankfully this one can be kept inside near a window. I planted: basil, chives, oregano, parsley and cilantro.
Hopefully in a few months we will have some fresh veggies and in a few weeks some fresh herbs. It was a fun day.
Hope you all are having a great day!
I can't keep plants or flowers alive for nothing. I told my hubby to not even bother buying me flowers anymore just because I kill them so fast. Same goes for fish, I just can't do it :/ it's not intentional I swear :)
ReplyDeleteThat's awesome! Good luck with the growing.
ReplyDeleteI want a garden so badly but my yard is so small and my dogs love eating my plants and flowers! LOL.
ReplyDeleteThat looks great! I'm hoping to finally plant a garden next year :)
ReplyDelete:) Thanks Ashleigh! Yay for planting one of your own. :)
DeleteYay for gardening! Can't wait til I have a little spot in the sunlight to start one too!

ReplyDeleteI kill everything I ever try to grow. I actually killed two cacti last year. I am so impressed with y'all's garden!
ReplyDeleteYAY - we are totally doing a garden this year too!
ReplyDeleteLooks fantastic!!!! I may have to steal this idea!!
ReplyDeleteAwesome, can't wait to see how it goes! I'm anxious to move so we can get our garden started.
ReplyDeleteI am so jealous! I want to grow a garden so bad, but its so hard in this AZ heat! good luck miss!

Just find ones that take full sun...start small and see what happens. :)
DeleteI am working on an indoor herb garden and my husband finished building our outdoor planter boxes this weekend. Can't wait to compare notes!
ReplyDeleteI am right there with you. I can't keep any plants alive to save my life.
ReplyDeleteGood luck to you guys! Hopefully you can keep these babies growing.
I must say I am jealous.
Haha here's hoping I can keep these alive. :)
DeleteSweet ... that is definitely something I want to do once we get into a new house. Build a little garden for Rey and I to play in!

I love your gardens!! That's one of my goals one of these years, to plant a garden...it's kind of hard to grow things here, but there are some things that do well. ANYTHING would be nice, since produce is so expensive here! Even if it's just potatoes or something, haha!
ReplyDeleteIt looks great! Good luck with gardening!
ReplyDeleteEvery year, but this one since we are PCSing this summer, I've had a garden. Usually I start my seeds during lent and by the time the last freeze is gone I have seedlings ready to plant outside.
ReplyDeleteHope your garden grows well this year. Can't wait to see pictures of the progress.
Good luck! Everything I tried to grown here has died. I hope you have much better luck than me!
ReplyDeleteYay for gardening!! Ever since we bought our first home, I have wanted to plant a garden SOO badly!!
ReplyDeleteYou should!!! :)
DeleteWell, since I'm having a semi-black thumb.. all my green thoughts to you and your garden. Keep me updated how it goes! Have fun!!
ReplyDelete:) Thanks Stephanie!! I'm really excited.
DeleteThat garden really looks wonderful. I think you are off to a great start. I don't have a green thumb or a space to even consider putting a garden, so I'm jealous! I wish you luck!
ReplyDeleteThanks Rachel! :) I sure hope something grows.
DeleteI would love to have a garden. But, since we live in an apartment, it's not really possible. Maybe some day!
ReplyDeleteWe had a garden in NC and loved the results! Good luck!
ReplyDeleteYay for gardening! My husband and I kill plants too, all the time. Lol. Looking forward to seeing how it grows. :)
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful! Even though I kill plants ALL THE TIME I still really want to grow a garden. It makes me happy to think about eating food I grew.
ReplyDeleteHow exciting! I can't wait to start my first garden next month. I am too lazy to start from seeds! ;) Good luck!
ReplyDelete:) Thanks Stephanie! Good luck with yours! :)
DeleteI lived by someone who had a mint garden. It smelled so good.
ReplyDeleteI've always wanted to grow a herb garden and even a vegetable garden, but the heat in this place makes it nearly impossible. also, it doesn't help that Brownie will destroy and eat anything and everything.
ReplyDeletecan't wait to see how everything looks when its starts growing!
This is the first time I have ever had a garden and it is so great to have fresh herbs at your disposal! It's also so cool to watch everything grow!
ReplyDeleteI have had a garden bed for the last couple of years. I've always used plant starts from the Farmer's market instead of seed. I'm not very good at gardening, so seeds seem to difficult for me.
ReplyDeletegrow away my dear! i love herbs. i often try and do a window herb garden, but bad at it. i do well with green onions :)
ReplyDeletegrow away my dear! i hope you get some yummy fresh vegetables and herbs!
ReplyDeleteThanks!! :) Here's hoping something grows. :)
DeleteI love that box! I attempted to make my own last year, but the box looked crappy and the vegetables didn't grow.. Hope you have better luck!!
ReplyDeleteThe formal dress in your last post is gorgeous! And I'm glad that the dress for the CoC finally went on sale!
I always thought that looked like so much fun, but when the time comes to actually do it, my back never gives me the go ahead! SO! That means I will live vicariously through you green thumb friends and enjoy your garden from afar! I hope everything grows!! xoxo
ReplyDeletei love this! so fun- i need to get into gardening..thanks for the inspiration! xo
ReplyDeleteGood luck! I have a black thumb, so don't ask me for pointers! Haha
ReplyDeleteI also kills everything! haha good luck! :)
ReplyDeleteI want to some day grow a small garden. Until I will stick to my lucky bamboo that i've had for about a year. It's so easy to take care of it. lol
