    * means I put it there no * I didn't put it there This started out as a compost pile for my *Banana tree.Then Cannas stared to grow .Though I moved them all (wrong).Lets see there's a *Gourd, Potatoes behind the *Tomatoes (2 kinds) in front of the banana tree., *Cucumber and *Amaryllis. Now everything keeps growing so fast and good (black gold).
    Now I have to find room for the Squash and Watermelon and Pumpkins that I germinated this year. I think I went over board. I gave half my seedling to my friend and he gave me seedlings. I'm going out of my mind

    Such troubles Polly! It's always very interesting to see what pops up in the compost pile! :)

    Ah Gizmo, you have that terrible produce growing affliction that allotmenteers over in the Uk suffer from. You start with a couple of veggie plants in a nice pot, then the next year you have a scattering of pots, before you know it you have a veggie bed, then half the lawn goes to make room from the growing vegetable garden, and then you give in and get an allotment and become self sufficient. It is a fantastic hobby! Looks great. Will you get bananas from the palm?

    Looks like you may have to move the compost spot as your new plants look right at home out there :)

    Glendann I've stared another one because everything is taking off so well :) . On a occasion I'll put egg shells and coffee grounds in that bed. It's taking along time to make more compost :-x . The cost for a nice compost bin is so costly :( . I need more black gold :!:
