My Garden!

Yay for warm Utah weather! I am growing my very first garden all by myself. I am super excited! I've tried other stuff, herbs here and there, flowers sometimes and generally I kill them all. Luckily I (and with the help of some awesome gardeners and landscape architect majors in my ward) am growing some awesome plants! I've got tomatoes, jalapenos, bell peppers, anahiem chilis (this was an accidental purchase, anyone know how to use them?), butternut squash, zuchinni, cucumbers and canteloupe (I just planted them they haven't sprouted yet). I am also growing basil. parsley, cilantro, sage and thyme... all very exciting :)

Sage, Cilantro, Thyme
Parsley & Basil (There was supposed to be oregano too but it spilled out before it sprouted)

I think I crowded too much stuff in here, I'll be transplanting the peppers, but the tomatoes are growing well!

Awesome! We have a garden this year too. I did grow one two years ago at out old house, but I didn't put enough nutrients in the soil, so not much grew. This year my garden is looking pretty good so far, I'll have to get some pics and post them.
