June Garden 2017

I wanted to take a few pictures of our garden before things got too big.  I've noticed many of the plants have really taken off with this latest rain, so I wanted to post these pictures before I take new photos.

This bed on the left is our perennial garden for our herbs.  I planted our two asparagus plants on the left side, from our home in Indiana.  I've noticed this weekend that a Blackberry plant has sprouted up by the asparagus plants!  I am happy to have a new berry plant! Surprised, but happy!  I'll wait until the fall to move it.

The turnips I transplanted are extremely happy with their new space!

Tomato and Potato plants doing great!

These are the three new raised beds we built this year.

Kale

Brussel Sprouts

Two Brussel Sprouts on left, nine mixed pepper plants, and two tomato plants on right side.

There are four celery plants on the left side, they are doing really well.  I've planted spinach and lettuce in the soil in front of the celery and around the iris plants.

The Blackberry plants we brought from Indiana are doing very well!  We didn't get many berries last year--hoping this year will be better.

I've transplanted five or six MILKWEED plants, and this is the only plant that has completely accepted their new home.  Luckily, there were a LOT of milkweed plants in the woods behind our house.  I was wanting to lure some Monarch butterflies into our yard.
