Garden Pics.

I was a little late in planting everything this year due to cold weather, and late harvesting Onions... I put everything in the ground May 28th. So in about 3 weeks, the growth has been great.

I have two 4x8 beds connecting in an "L" shape. I don't recommend planting everything like I do... I pretty much do everything "outside" the book; but it definitely works for me.

These are 2 of MANY MANY Roma Tomatoes:

These are gorgeous. You have me wanting to try vines now. I'd love to do grapes. What do you do with them? Jelly? Or maybe wine? Lucky you!

Adorable puppy! My friend has 2 chocolate labs. Just love em!

I wish I had better pictures of the garden to be honest... Those pictures just don't do it justice. Especially with all the buds/green veggies ready to turn in a few weeks.

As for the vines, they are tempranillo grapes. They grow VERY well here in my area. I like right by the river, so I have a lot of clay soil... and the tempranillo grapes are taking off. Those are only 1 year old vines if you can believe it! Anyway, I purchased them to make wine. Ive got a total of 10 vines down the side of my house, and they all look the same. I wasn't expecting soo many bunches. This year is my trial year for wine... we'll see how it turns out. :/

The Peach is a "White Lady" Peach tree.

The Fig is a Schar Italian Fig tree.

I also have a nectarine tree on the side.
