    I recently added a green house and mulched everything. This year seems to be starting great.
    There are more pictures on my garden. I will try to update weekly. Hope you enjoy.

    Thank you. We got it built late so not much happening in there. A few jalapeno peppers for salsa and one Cherokee Purple plant.

    Wow. Can't believe a garden can look so NEAT!
    But I just have a question... Why the small "boxes/beds"? Looks to me like there so much space un-used???

    Lovely! I have started mulching between my beds also. So nice not to be walking in the mud, and keeps the weeds down. All your plants are looking good. Love you little green house.

    I'll echo the others. Your tidiness is almost scary. :D Lovely garden indeed.

    Thank to all for the compliments. My wife laughed when I read them because the rest of my yard is not this nice. I guess you can tell where my passion lies.
    The beds are small because of the evolution of the garden. Originally they were just mounds in a space of tilled grass. It was to hard to maintain any weed control over large beds. Eventually I added the raised borders to contain the mounds. When the wood (cedar)finally becomes to broken up and I need to replace it I will make them bigger.

    Hi Brad,
    i like how you have many raised beds,..each one is a project in itself and of course as time passes and plants expand you have ample room and can extend those raised beds,..the Victorians were great believers in raised beds,..i go along with that myself.

    All your plants appear in great health,..and i like your green house,..looks like you will be starting many seedlings in there.

    Great job Brad. Looks to be easy to maintain. Hope to have more raised beds next year myself.

    Hi Brad,I like the red greenhouse.I like your neat raised beds. I don't have any raised beds for vegs.I do have some for flower planters.They are easier to control weeds. Do you find they dry out more than plants in ground?I've wanted to try strawberries in a raised bed.Have found strawberries hard to keep weeded in ground.Your berries are great.Sometimes I say if I put the study & effort in edibles that I do with flowers, I wouldn't have to buy many groceries. :D :D
