Do you know that each time you do a post about your garden and show pictures of your garden, I am green with envy?
Do you know that when I see that you have little tomatoes on your tomato plants or little peppers on your pepper plants I get very jealous?
Do you also know that when I see that your potato plants are this tall(making a gesture with my hand), I wonder when will mine get to be that tall?
Your Northern Friend,

Everything has been planted in the garden. This year is my first time trying heirloom tomatoes, so I really can't wait to try them. Now you know that I have started my seeds about 2 months ago and I have got quite a few heirloom tomato varieties. Unfortunately 2 out of my 3 trays of seedlings were destroyed. No, the dogs didn't do it. It was my own fault and I won't get into the details. The 2 destroyed trays contained mostly my tomatoes. I was so bumped! :(
Luckyly there were some heirloom tomatoes in the 3rd tray and the local nursery sells some heirloom varieties as well.
So here's a new list of what's in the garden:
Tomatoes: These are the ones I started from seeds - Yellow Pear, Cherokee Purple, Beef Master. These were purchased from the nursery - Hungarian Hearts, Roma, Sugar Snack, Celebrity & Pink Red. Then I found out that I had some volunteer seeds from the old garden so I dug them up and transplanted them in the new garden. Who knows what those would be? Last year I had some hybrids, it would be really interesting to find out what they are!
Corn: Honey and Cream - this is my first time planting corn.
Zukes: Cue Ball - these are the cute round ones.
Cukes: Northern Pickling and I also found some volunteer seeds. I just left them be and see what I get later in the season.
Winter Squash: Sweet Dumpling, first time trying these.
Potatoes: Norland Dark Red and Yukon Gold.
Eggplant: Thai Yellow Egg, free seeds from Baker Creek.
Hot Peppers: Jalapeno and Italian Pepperoncini.
Cabbage & Cauliflower: first time planting these and I don't know what variety these are.
Broccoli: My co-worker bought too many for her garden so she gave me 2 plants.
Onions: Yellow Stuttgutter
Asian Veggies: Bok Choy and Napa Cabbage
Garlic: German Extra Hardy (In old garden area)
Lettuce: Mesclun Mix (In old garden area)
Strawberries: Ozark, Robinson & Quinault (In old garden area)
Carrots: Purple Haze
Herbs: Parsley, Basil, Rosemary & Oregano
Sorry I have not taken anymore pictures of my garden.
So, what's growing in your garden? Do you have a must have favorite variety?

Since I'm so far south, I won't tell you how my veggies are doing. ;o)
But it won't be long till yours are ready! =D
mommy never ends up with any veggies - we are bad doggies and eat them as they rippen - before mommy gets to them.
if we didnt she would have her own and we wouldnt get to go to the farmers market and buy all sort of good stuff
and you know you have to support local produce

You can look at my windowsill full of little tomatoes and be jealous. But know this: our tomatoes are about played out. If they aren't on the vine now, we will probably have to wait until fall. But we do get a second crop then!
I'm jealous of the size of your garden, so I guess it all even out in the end. : )
Khyra: You are welcome to share our bounties.
Chester: I'm sure that's what Samantha & June would do too. :)
Crossview: You are right, it won't be long. I just can't wait!
NY Bully Rats: Sorry, doggies are not allowed in my garden. Samantha & June don't like it very much. They want to help me dig. :)
Kim: Thank you. Yes, we are starting to see some progress. Just wish that plants can grow in the winter time.
Mrs JP: Thank you.
Kathryn: Yikes on frost! Luckyly none here but it's still get pretty cold at night. Further up in the Adirondacks, they got frost too!
Lena: Thank you. I know, there is good and bad about having cooler weather. But there are a lot more things that you can grow.
Paco & Milo: The girls are not allow in the garden either. They like to dig too much. They don't much care to eat the veggie.
Julie: I guess it's even. But you know one thing I don't envy you - the heat! Funny, I came from a tropical country and the first state in the US I lived in was Louisiana and I don't like the heat. Go figure...
