Welcome to my garden!
... This past spring I started germinating seeds in the kitchen and attic so I could start a garden in the backyard. Because this is my first year gardening (and I'm unsure how I want to design my backyard garden), I choose to start a "container garden" for this year's season. I thought this blog would be a fun way to visually document the growth of each plant... and eventually the transformation of my whole back yard! Thanks for stopping by and happy gardening! :)

By clicking on any one of the plants in the Archive,
you can see the growth of that specific plant.

Miniature Rose Bush...

Transplant. I've been waiting all season to see this plant bloom... I was so discouraged when I had to prune it back so much (and so late in the season) because of the spider mite infestation. But it has been doing really well - might even be a bit bushier now - and just recently a couple buds have come up!
