My First Garden

On the morning of March 21st. My hubby and I went out in our backyard and decided on a place to put our garden. I didn't want it too far to the back of the yard. I love to just look out our back door and see everything. :)

I left for a few hours with my sisters to go pick up our plants for our garden. I already had the Creole Tomato and Sweet Bell Pepers from my sisters for my birthday.
When I came home, my hubby had already dug the spot for our veggie garden.

I placed the plants according to how I thought they should go, placing the cucumbers to the back. Cucumbers grow on vines, and my cucumbers will grow along our fence. I bought a 3 pack of already growing Cucumbers plants, and I had 4 seedlings growing.

My sisters suggested I plant Merigolds in with the veggies to prevent bugs from getting to them. I didn't mind purchasing them as I think they are beautiful flowers. Can't wait for the rest of the plant to fully bloom!

These are the cucumber seedlings I had growing in an empty egg carton. I'm really surprised they grew so much and that they are still growing. lol I purchased 3 more as I wasn't sure they seedlings would continue to grow.

This is me (hubby took this pick) planting my herbs in their planter. I was told it would be better to do it this way, I hope they continue to grow!

Here's the finished project!
My herbs, strawberries and floral plants.
