I have grown up knowing I don’t have much of a green thumb. Nor have I had much of a desire to grow things. But several years ago I got a Christmas Cactus. I figured if I could keep it alive then I might be able to branch out into other plants. It’s grown so much I’ve had to re-pot it three times. This year has found my husband and I wanting to plant a garden. Now believe me we have tried in the past, and failed. But we decided that we were going to try one more time and so he made me some raised garden beds. We have to have raised beds because we have learned our dogs love the dirt and won’t stay out of a garden area. With a small yard, we can be more productive with a raised bed. And so our garden project has begun.
Now I am not sure what kind of garden Lydia or Kermit had planted but the blooms are very promising for a number of different vegetables.
Originally I had found this photo of Kermit and posted it on June 5, 2019 and can be found at https://themillergarden.weebly.com
But then when I was looking at photos this one up above was in my “not used” folder but seemed really familiar to me. For it’s just another angle to this garden this time without Kermit. I love how you can just see a vehicle there at the post. Not sure if it’s a car or a truck, but it could be anything! I like the flowers all around as well. I’ve been researching pollinating flowers and how you need them to attract the bees to help pollinate the vegetables.
It has been written that to plant a garden is to believe in tomorrow. We come from a long line of believers! While I will never have a garden as big as these photos, it’s nice knowing that I’m doing the same thing that many before me in our family have done as well. It’s never too late to start a garden of your own, even if it just starts with one plant.
