This is my first attempt at food growing. I have tomatoes and peppers here and a zucchini in the back yard. Planted some marigolds because I heard that they keep some insect pests away because of their aroma.
I've potted some sweet basil, boxwood basil, thyme, rosemary and cilantro. Oh, and a pot of a sweet potato vine. In the back is a coleus that I will either plant in the ground or in a bigger pot.
Cleaned and refilled the hummingbird feeder. And I'm getting my first rose on the Knockout Rose bush that I planted last week. The metal headboard that the greenery is climbing on and the birdbath were both from Freecyle.
Another Knockout Rose bush planted in the front yard. This is going to look so sweet in front of the picket fence section.
Got this nice potting table on the curb a couple weeks ago. The wagon wheel was a gift from sister KK and the folding door in the background was a curbside find.
Now I need some plants for my shady porch. I'll check in with Freecycle to see if any generous friends with give some to me....

Looks very nice and I hope you can reap from your labors. I haven't ever used fresh herbs but I hear it really makes a difference in cooking.
