Monster Tomato

I think my tomato plant is going to attack me in the night.

This is how my garden grows

My mini garden is doing great! I even see my first few green tomatoes. I realized too late that you are suppose to have stakes/cages for the squash so I'm not sure how many yellow squash I will get, but now I know for next year. Also, I should have planted just one or two of the squash and tomatoes. They've gotten big! The herbs are doing great though and I made a margarita pizza with my basil last night. Love that!

Patio Improvement

I love sitting out on our patio on our new furniture. Love it. It doesn't hurt that the temperature has been great and the hubby lives to grill.

What I didn't like was the view. This view.
Since we don't have a garage, this is where the lawnmower lives.

But now, he lives on the other side. We put up some lattice and planted some herbs, tomatoes and squash. I'm most excited for he clematis that I planted though.
Growing up, both of my family's houses had purple clematis growing on the fence or the deck. I'm so excited that our house has it too! Climate permitting, I hope to plant it at all of our homes. I can't wait til it's bigger and covering the lattice.

Meet Dr. Rubbel. That's actually the name of the variety. No need to rename this guy.
Now the view is much better. U hope the plants do well. Besides a few more pots, I don't plan on doing too much more planting this year. I don't have a green thumb like my mom. Her garden is beautiful! I'm just hoping to not kill what we've got so far. Happy spring!
