Gardening...What will you plant in your garden this spring

[Mistletoe]

I have decided now that my veggies are done for the year, to plant a nice Fall mum by my front door...

Do you think your mum will come back this year?

Most people can't wait to get out and garden. I'm dreading it. I have to treat EVERYTHING for fungal infection and should have done it already, but can't apply it when there will be rain. And it's raining frequently. I need some warm sunshine to energize me!

I can understand that. We are getting a mix these days. For this Spring, I am thinking green onions and peppers. That way I am certain they will be eaten... lol

I planted seed for kale, red cabbage, purple potatoes, blue corn, yellow corn, lettuce, mustard greens, green onions and grape tomatoes. Between my cats, the birds, the rabbits and I'm not sure what else, I hardly have anything growing. I finally fenced off a small portion, just so I can have something! I was really looking forward to the corn, but I think something's taking the seeds from underneath, since I've been watching the ground for disturbance. I'm trying to deter the animals by using garlic essential oil around the plants, but with the frequent rain it keeps getting washed off. The smell is really making me want a salad, though.

I did place in planters, green peppers and green onions. The onions came as a seed strip! Very handy. I also stuck a few kernels of corn in a very large planter just for fun. The peppers and onions are growing, we will see on the corn. I hope you get enough to have made your efforts worthwhile...

I finally got one shoot of corn. I've been watching it grow and looking forward to it. I went out today and it has completely disappeared! Along with the extra corn seeds I just planted! Pretty much everywhere I plant is going to be fenced in next year!

Glad your plants are faring better than mine!

The peppers are a bit smaller than before, but they still taste okay. The corn (3 stalks) and the green onions are doing fine, but nothing to harvest just yet...

Planted 6 tomato plants outside and we are starting to see golf ball size toms now. Also got 2 yes 2 Red Delicious apples..

I'm not sure if it's birds or squirrels, but something is eating my apples & peaches while they're still on the trees, so that half the skin is still there, but they're becoming hollow on the inside. And the birds are dropping more grapes than they're eating- such a waste! So far, the only vegetables I've been able to harvest are arugula and some green onions.

The tomatoes are coming along as well as the 2 Red Delicious apples we have growing..

Are your red delicious apples red yet? Mine are still green.
