I'm A Gardener!

I started a garden today. I think it will go well. I planted zinnias, chives, cilantro, oregano, peppers, sweet basil, and tomatoes. The downfall to this plan is that I have no idea how to garden or when I should plant want or how to actually make things grow. So I'm hoping that all of these will thrive with nothing but my love and some water. We'll see.

These are the peppers (left) and cilantro (right) that I will soon transfer to my garden. I just don't want to yet because they're doing so well- I fear they may die outside.

This is my garden! There aren't any drain holes in the bottom of the giant pot but there's a crack down each side so I hope that will be an effective drain. The little pot on the ground has nothing in it...yet.

Sparti sitting in the garden!

Garden close up. Behind the tiny wire fence are the zinnias.

In case you were expecting more pictures, you should know that the large pot itself is the whole garden. And the little pot will be the garden annex, whenever I figure out what to put in it.

  2. pretty big. plus he's been on a diet so he's shed a few pounds, therefore appearing smaller. the pot is about mid-thigh on me, i guess. it's gonna be a pretty sweet garden.
