Pot Garden

I am rather excited. I ordered a bunch of seeds from Seed Exchange today!! I'm going to have the rocking est garden ever if I can get them all to grow. I've decided that in case I move pots are my best plan. My porch is about a week away from an over haul! I'm going to try veggies as well as herbs, and if I get really inspired I'm going to do my best to save my seeds for next year...but that is a lot of work. I would like to make one raised bed so I can have cucumbers, potatoes, cabbage, broccoli, and Brussel sprouts (I'm so excited!)

On the ground using the porch as a trellis will be beans and peas. I also got some butterfly weed seeds so I can have a flower - in a pot of course. Then I have or will have seeds for:

rosemary
sage
basil
tomatoes
black cumin
st. john's wort
beets
carrots
corn (I'm not planting this season)
kale
2 types of lettuce
bell pepper
chives
cilantro
dill
hyssop
lambs ear
lavender
lemon mint
thyme
garlic (doesn't get planted until fall)

How fun is that??!! We'll see how it all goes, but I'm going to motivate myself this next week to go get everything I need at the store so it's ready when my seeds get here. I do have some of the seeds started already. I'll try to get some pictures from my seedlings that I've had growing - and that the animals have continuously try to destroy by maiming/eating. At least it won't be my fault if I never get any plants to grow! ;p
