The Start of my Garden

We have had a bit of a prolonged winter here in Colorado with snow in May (though that is really not that unusual). I planted this portion of my garden from seed (except the cabbage) and it has all fared well even with the cold weather. I plan to plant my herbs and tomatoes (and squash, and whatever else I can fit in here) in the next few weeks. There is still a good chance of overnight lows dropping below 50 and I don’t want to jeopardize the rest of the garden.

This is a wide shot of everything that is planted so far.

Radishes

Carrots

Green leaf lettuce

Mescalin lettuce mix (so far I see red and green leaf lettuce, romaine, kale, and arugula for sure).

Peas

Leaks

Winter sewn garlic that I got from a woman through freecycle.

Cabbage. The little card that comes with it shows a baby next to the head of cabbage and the cabbage is larger! We will see if mine grows well enough to take similar pictures this summer.
