Garden Update: Summer 2011
Here are some updated photos of our backyard garden.
 |
| Herb garden in the foreground. The urn has a fountain in it. To the right is a new crepe myrtle which should provide some shade for the porch. |
 |
| This year's vegetable garden is better than last year's. At least the plants are alive, but they are not thriving. We'll make some changes and hopefully next year will be better. |
