Growing Season 2014 - Let The Garden Begin

So once again I have started to grow my vegetable garden.  This year the garden centre was a little understocked.  We are still missing a few plants.  So far I have planted Sweet Millions Cherry Tomatoes, Beefstake Tomatoes, and one Yellow Girl Cherry Tomato plant.  I have zucchini, cucumber, and tomorrow I will build my pea trellis and plant the Snow Peas.  We planted this all last night but ran out of daylight and have to continue tomorrow.  I would like to find some Butternut Squash and broccoli but so far the garden centre doesn't have any.  We are planting late because of the bad winter we just had and the late spring.  Thankfully it seems we have skipped right over spring and have moved right into summer.  It's nice and hot out.

My Hosta have come up nice and strong again this year.  It's weird as they seemed to have moved over from where I had originally planted them.  The strawberries are in full bloom right now so I hope we get a lot from the plants that didn't die off over the winter.  Our Queen Ann Rose bush has now completely died and we just have one or two branches of another rose bush still left.  I will cut it completely back and see what's left.

Well, I'll keep posting photos as things grow.  Wish me luck!
