Last Minute Mini Garden

I know, I know...it's not the right season for planting. It was sort of on a whim that we decided to buy a few herbs and some peppers and just see if they'd survive the heat.

There was hardly anything available to buy, which shows just how out of season we really are. We found a few good looking bell pepper plants, a very tiny Basil plant, some Rosemary that looked perky, and some Oregano. We'll see.

We just bought the plants and one bag of soil. That's it. We just planted them among the landscaped areas of our backyard. Easy peasy. Let's just say we weren't willing to take a big risk the first time and off-season at that.

 

Bubzy just couldn't get enough of carrying around the bell pepper plants. We were so unprepared that we couldn't find a shovel, hand or big, so we ended up using a tile scraper. Haaaaa! Kinda funny. Oh well. We'll see how it all turns out. If nothing else, the kids had fun digging and planting.
