The Sunday after the Fairytale Town adventure, we decided the summer garden had to go in. So, in the morning (after Papa graciously let me sleep passed 8 am), we headed to the nursery and picked out plants!
The ones that made the cut:
Tomatoes: Black Zebra, Caspian Pink, Heirloom Pineapple, and a cherry tomato
Walla Walla sweet onions
Serrano peppers
Bell Peppers: Canary Yellow, Blue Jam (purple in color), and Sweet Spanish Red
Zucchini - but only two plants this year because the 6 we planted last year was a bit much!
Zebra eggplant
Lemon Cucumber
Quinalt Strawberries (of Kyla's choosing)
Cilantro, parsley, mint, basil and sage: all to compliment the chives, oregano and rosemary that we already have.
I'm so excited I can taste it! Literally.
