Fools Mock

A recent conversation with my sister went something like this...

N: You should see my garden, it's growing like crazy. My tomato bush has 15 tomatoes growing on it, and at least 30 more blossoms, and my so-called dwarf peas that were only supposed to get 2-3 feet tall, out grew their trellis, so we had to build them a new one, and they are taller than Sam now!
J: Wait, you have a garden? Where did you put it?
(I live in a townhouse)
N: In pots.
J: Where did you put the pots?
N: Up My front walkway, it was the only place that had good sun. We also found a spot along the side of the door for the peas, and we planted some watermelons in front of the bushes.
(Julene starts laughing hysterically)
J: It must look ridiculous! You just have a bunch of vegetables growing in pots up your walkway? You have to post some picture on your blog, I've got to see this!

I told her I would and then we continued to talk about all the things we've planted in our gardens. As ridiculous as it may sound, I am quite proud of my little garden. Here, let me introduce you to it..

MY SUGAR PEAS


If you look close, you can see where the old trellis ends. Below is a picture of them reaching the top of the new trellis.

This is the pretty pink blossom that comes before the peas.


These are what we have been eating all week, and they just keep coming. Every morning I go outside and there are more ready to be picked.

MY GREEN-BEAN BUSHES, CHERRY TOMATO PLANT, AND 1 OF MY 2 BLUEBERRY BUSHES

Yes, some of the green-bean bushes are planted in an old laundry soap bucket. Why not, it was free! And, in case you are wondering, the watermelons are planted right behind the grass-like bushes.
MY WATERMELONS

I planted them a week and a half ago, and they just came up on Saturday. Aren't they cute?

MY OTHER BLUEBERRY BUSH, BASIL, TOMATO PLANT AND ANOTHER GREEN-BEAN BUSH


This tomato plant and I have been through a lot together. For about a month it just kept trying to die, it was one crisis after another, but I finally talked it into living, and look at how it's turning out!




And so Julene, my garden might be a little 'out of the box', but it's growing like crazy! Now I'm daring you to post pictures of your garden, and we'll see who has the last laugh!
