Almost ready to plant!

Most of my plants have survived being raised by me. It is almost time to plant!
I planted Italian parsley, some fancy tomatoes, kale, red leaf lettuce, buttercrunch lettuce, Texas sweet onions, green onions, leeks, basil and rosemary. I will direct sow some carrots and cukes.

Here is my plum tree I received for Mother's Day. Yum! I can't wait for a great plums!!!

My garden bed. It took 42 cinder blocks (we had to go back for two more). They are heavy. Very heavy. I put weed blocker fabric down before the dirt went in.


The inside dimensions ended up being 2' 8" by 9' 10". We filled it with 2 yards of compost/soil.
