The Garden is finally all in!!

 
In the front here is tomatoes.  There are 6 of 6 different kinds.
To the left all fluffy is chive.
The center has 9 yellow banana peppers.
The fencing along the left is for peas, those seeds went in 2 weeks ago, but the far fence batch all were flooded out, so we had to reseeded today.
Off to the extreme left right in front that you can't see is flat-leaf parsley.
I'll talk about the far end in a minute...

 
Here we are looking at the pea fence.  Growing up the chainlink fence behind the garden are 2 (3yo) seedless green grape vines.  They have cute little grapes started.  Our neighbor there 'kindly' directs all his water right into our garden area!  That's why we had the flooding sooo bad where things got washed out last week.  ggrr...

Okay, the other end.  Now you see the pea fence on the right side.  Along the left is a row of 6 cabbages.  Toward the center of the garden are 6 each of broccoli, califlower, brussle sprouts planted in 2's. (so, 3 plantings essentially.  I did the tomatoes the same way)
It's hard to tell, but there is a row of black-seeded-simpson lettuce in front of the peas.  Right in the center is a furrow we just dug for roquette arugula.  We had it planted, but it got washed out last week with the other peas.  ggrrr....  Luckily the simpson lettuce survived.

So, here is the start of my garden for the year.  Hopefully things don't get flooded out again!


We lost a garden claw in the process...
We'd already lost a hoe too this year.
