Inch by inch, row by row...

...we're gonna make this garden grow!

Larry and I planted our little garden this afternoon.  We are so proud!  We have tomatoes, squash, bell peppers, banana peppers, rosemary and lavender in a little plot...



 
 



...and basil, cilantro, spinach, cucumbers, cherry tomatoes and sweet peppers in a huge pot.  Rhiana gave me some Miracle-Gro Gro-ables seed pods for Easter and I picked up a few more.  We planted them all in a pot to transplant later. 

We're so excited!!  :)






My calendula didn't do so hot in the egg shells but as soon as I put them down in a pot and set it out on the deck, they really started to take off!  I hope to have some blooms by my birthday!


So I planted the rest of the pack in a pot and set it out on the deck.  
Calendula Dreams, the sequel.  :)

Calendula Dreams: The Beginning

I planted some calendula seeds today!  It's March 1st, after all.  I started my first 18 little plants in egg shells like I saw on Pinterest.  I've been saving white egg shells for a couple of weeks for this purpose.  I have a carton of fresh brown eggs in the refrigerator right now that I got from a guy at work that I'm going to plant the next ones in.  I'm curious to see if one set does any better than the other.  I'll let y'all know!

Happy growing, little calendulas!
