Planning
I am preparing for Armageddon, or a depression whichever comes first, so I have ordered up a vegetable garden full of seeds.
Here's the list:
ok, so there's a few flowers at the end. I'm a weak and sinful person.
Flowers - useless but necessary.
I ordered the Rose Campion from Bluestone (3), it turns out they are biennials so I will have to order more next year, to have them constantly blooming. (this is more than likely the reason I could not find them in my bed the next year). They are not very expensive, which makes me think it's another Lamb's Ear experience - I got obsessed with them one year, even going so far as to plant seeds, only to find out they are invasive, have ugly flowers , and you really only need one! or none, even.
But forget the flowers, we are going to have us some salads, I think. Of course I am only planting about 3 seeds out of each pack. (If you want any let me know) The Roma tomatoes are to make my mother's spaghetti sauce with, and I suppose I will have to can it (sigh), I swore I would never do this stuff again! this time I will teach my kids, whether they want it or not.
I am ordering up a raised bed with the gift certificate from Boob & Kim for my birthday last year. (Thank you!)
and as for the flowers, this is the year of Pull and Dig and Plant. I'm tired already. (note: find the implements)
Can you survive on salads and pasta?
