Gardening in California

Yesterday we were busy putting together a small container garden that we're hoping will do well here in our new setting. Our little patch this year includes Early Girl Tomatoes, Bush Beans, Cayenne Peppers, Red & Green Oakleaf Lettuce, Basil, Hot & Spicy Oregano, Thyme, Rosemary, & Sage.

Considering that last years garden was considerably larger (approximately 450 sq. ft.) our little grouping of containers should be a bit easier to care for, and we're hoping to master art of 'succession planting' with our two window boxes of lettuce so we can enjoy fresh salad greens all summer.  We'll let you know how it goes!
