I know it's not like the rest of you guys here, but hey, we can't all be
masters!

I now have 6 tomatoes in a large container pot, and 2 more in ground. Had
to use the front yard for the in ground due to flea spray and such for the
dog in the back.

Planted an added strawberry in my slowly growing strawberry container (they
come back up each year). Lettuce now greening a container and the lavender
is getting bigger. I tried something new for us, broccoli just because I
want to see it grow. Put in some spinach in another container. Bell
peppers this year will go in the side yard with cages. About 6 plants is
plenty for us. 1 planter has wild cutting flowers and 4 remain to be
planted.

There's a sweet William in the front that lived all winter, and just put 14
snap dragons in a pot for color. Best of all., my baby apple trees survived
their first winter and are now leafing out itty bitty baby leaves in the
front yard.

Well I just noticed the rosemary made it over winter in a wall of
water. Side observation mint inclosed is thinking it is August. I
wrote that tidbit down.

I'm so smart I just purchased some semblance of mint for about $3 when
my dormant garden has superior mint quality hidden. So much for being a
master gardener.
