Mother's Day is Garden Planting Day in Zone 5
Last Sunday my partner and I finalized our main planting for the year a Mother's Day tradition. We did our vegetable garden and cut flower garden and are now waiting for everything to grow. We got our plants from a mixture of the Farmers Market (Great deals with limited selection) and two different garden stores nearby. Everyone was out buying plants and getting them ready and in the ground. Its so great to see everyone out gardening.
Here is our main vegetables:
- Tomates (Sweet 100 and Roma)
- Cayenne Peppers
- Sweet Corn
- Leeks
- Peas
- Acorn Squash
- Decorative Gourds
- Salad Greens (6 Pack mixed)
- Cabbages (2 green, 2 red 2 savoy)
- Lemon Verbena
- Dill
My wife did a lot of cut flowers for our flower garden this year as well. We have zinnia, cosmos, delphium as well some other annuals I have never heard of beofre. We are ready to have plenty of flowers for bouquets between this and the rest of our perennials until the fall.
