Finally finished planting my garden....tower!

This is the second year for our family to grow a garden using the Tower Garden.  It is a bit later in the season to plant it, but with the move from Saskatchewan to BC things are just getting done later than usual.

I found out to my dismay that stores that have plants like Canadian Tire, Superstore, etc do not carry nursery stock past August 1st. Even some nurseries are totally out of stock for vegetable bedding plants.   Luckily Devon Nursery in Abbotsford had a nice selection of greens.




In the tower this year are a variety of greens - mixed lettuce, green leaf lettuce, & romaine, chard, & kale along with some tomato plants, a couple of pepper plants, a marigold, and some herbs - basil, mint, and chamomile.

Not all of the plants were in good condition when I bought them.  I will keep you posted as to how they are doing.
