No garden this year. Once I move though I'm hoping to have a patio to grow some potted plants at least. Hopefully the new owners of my house will take full advantage of the nice big backyard and they will have a nice garden.

Nope; still too early in Northern Alberta. We still have the possibility of freezing at night. Maybe next weekend

LadyPact -> RE: is your garden planted yet (5/14/2011 8:08:41 AM)
Same on both counts.

I grew some cherry tomato plants from seeds and planted those in a big container out on the deck along with petunias and marigolds in boxes and pots. And made a big hanging basket out of a hot-magenta geranium and a couple of hangy-viney plants. I hung my windchimes from the bottom of it, so there will be tinkling. [:)] If the rain clears up by tomorrow, I'll do impatiens in the flower beds outside my front door for the neighbor kids to ride their bikes through. [>:]

too busy to plant one this year - unless i hire someone to do it for me

We got a couple of tomato plants in 5-gallon buckets. They are still green. I want to plant cherry tomatoes. If my brother would just bring the tiller over, I can have a small garden on the south (sunny) side. Mom wants a herb garden for cooking.

SorceressJ -> RE: is your garden planted yet (5/14/2011 1:19:18 PM)
Very busy couple of weeks in our garden. Tilled a new section for Yet More Seedlings of various kinds, including zuchinni, several kinds of peppers, late tomatoes, eggplants, cucumbers, watermelons, and yellow squash. Also laid a flowerbed, built a frame for some grapevines and transplanted young trees, including a forsythia. [:D] Still to come: moonflowers, marigolds, birdhouse gourds and PUNKINS! My vote would totally be 'work in progress' if there was a choice for that..

I planted annuals today, something this house hasn't seen in a very long time. The local grocery store had their root-bound pansy flats on sale this morning for $1.98. I thought I might go back later. When I did they were marked down again to $0.98. I bought a bunch and then put them in this evening. I thought that there were 4 plants per flat... nope: 6... and so, I found myself putting in 66 pansy plants. I do have perenials and I have another butterfly bush to put in. I bought some wild flower seeds and I will rake and sprinkle them this week. My Master and I are going to put in a small vegetable garden across from my natualized perenial bed.

smartsub10 -> RE: is your garden planted yet (5/14/2011 6:41:26 PM)
I bought 2 big pots of impatiens and put them out on my balcony. Done.[:D]

Today is our last official frost day.

Hahahahahahahahaah!!! ... No!

Muttling -> RE: is your garden planted yet (5/15/2011 5:15:13 PM)
Just finished today by getting the peanut beans in.

pahunkboy -> RE: is your garden planted yet (5/15/2011 5:16:50 PM)
I want to plant a money tree.

petmonkey -> RE: is your garden planted yet (5/15/2011 5:44:54 PM)
Nope, not nearly. The weather's been kind of uncooperative here and it's often been too wet out to dig.

windchymes -> RE: is your garden planted yet (5/15/2011 8:48:46 PM)
I bought some of those little solar-powered garden lights at Walmart today for $2.00 each. I stuck them in some of the pots and the hanging basket out on the deck, and now my deck looks magical! [:)]

kyraofMists -> RE: is your garden planted yet (5/16/2011 5:10:26 PM)
Unfortunately, freezing isn't as much of a concern for us right now as the wildfires are. I'm hoping for some rain and no winds
