the [somewhat] completed porch garden

i worked a little more on our porch garden this week and i think i’m ready to share photos of how it’s looking and what i planted!

i know, you’ve all been dying to know, right?

first, let’s remember what the porch looked like before i started.

and in progress.

and now.

haha, i know. the garden doesn’t look like much. yet.

i can’t wait for those little plants to get bigger!

now, on to what i planted!

rosemary

sage

sweet basil x3

[lime] thyme

(no clue how it’s different from normal thyme other than it’s vibrant color!)

cilantro

cherry tomatoes x2

so basically tons of herbs and some tomatoes!

my mom is also saving me some pepper seedlings that i’ll get next time i go home. we also planted green beans and had good success with them last summer, so i might get a pack of bean seeds too!

i didn’t really have much of a process for my planting.

first, i  decided which plants were going to go in which planter.

and i physically put them in the planters.

then i added potting soil + water (when capone wasn’t drinking it…)

to each planter and dug a hole for the seedling in the middle.

in went the seedling, and then i watered some more!

easy as that!

and some more progress photos because i like them.

now my plan is to water regularly and hope they get enough sun!

i’ll keep you updated on how they do.

*****

what vegetable would you want to plant in your garden?

i wish asparagus could grow in these planters – it’s my favorite and i spend a lot of money to buy it when it’s in season!
