Finally . . .

. . . it's starting to look like a real garden. So far we have planted: artichokes, two kinds of pole beans, two kinds of beets, carrots, leeks, elephant garlic, four kinds of lettuce, two kinds of mustard greens, bok choi, snow peas, dwarf sweet peas, five varieties of tomatoes, spinach, green onions, petunias, sunflowers and zinnias. Volunteer dill, calendulas and sunflowers are sprouting, and half a dozen Block Island beach roses are thriving in their pots. I need my new Adirondack chairs. And an umbrella for when it gets hot!
