Thanks!
I have planted thyme before works out great. Smells good when it's stepped and looks cool too!

Here are some other suggestions:

Moved mine this year to a sunnier spot and did raised beds. Happy so far with the plant growth and waiting to assess the harvest.

Wishing & hoping & thinking & praying, planning & dreaming... and entering!

I pulled up all my green bean plants. There were plenty of beans, but they were all tiny and the leaves were just drying up and falling off. I think it's just too hot for them, so I'll try again in September.

My mini-pepper plants are producing loads of flowers, but they're falling off before setting fruit. Too hot as well? I guess I'm going to try some sweet potatoes and okra - maybe they'll do better in this semi-tropical summer.

Foucault rocks.

Hey gardeners! Rough year so far. Poor veggies are getting crispy in most of the country, and up here in the NW we're still waiting for summer to hit. I'm harvesting a ton of peas, turnips, and lettuce, but my summer plants are still looking pretty tiny 'cause of the cool, cloudy weather. Hopefully the climate will moderate some soon and give everything a chance...

My niece came to visit right after we moved in (about 6 weeks ago) and was kind enough to share some of her plants with us. We have bell pepper, tomatoes and banana peppers.

Not a lot, but still nice to have a little something green outside my kitchen window.

Email? Wow, the interwebs is a vast mystery to me.

You're real close but they are about a two feet taller than the onions.

Wow, I was so sure
Ok, Garlic? Or that fancy onion stuff that Julia and Pepin use.

You have the right family but it's their taller, less sexy cousin the leek. Somewhat out of fashion nowadays.
