I have one long raised bed and two smaller raised beds and some other areas that I plant in. The longest bed has most of the vegetables, although I will usually mix calendula, nasturtium and herbs in with them. A smaller raised bed will have primarily flowers and possibly tomatoes and peppers, depending on what I'm rotating this year (last year the tomatoes were in the long bed, so I'll be moving four of them to this shorter bed). The rest of the garden is perennials, annuals, and shrubs. I tend to reinvent the wheel each season because I love experimenting and watching something new take form.
This is a circle for discussing plants, fungi, and slime mold. From flower beds to hobby farms; from your dying windowsill basil plant to kitchen gardens; from wild mushrooms to your failed tabletop mushroom kit.
If the species falls under the aforementioned categories, you are welcome to share advice, success, and failure.
Identification requests are also permitted, just please add the "ID Request" flair to your post.
Lastly, pictures of animals (e.g. bees) in your gardens are also welcome, but please keep animal agriculture to an extreme minimum--our focus is flora, not fauna.
Guidelines:
Be very careful about revealing your location information. If you need to give details, you probably should be as vague as possible, ie: "a desert", "the southwest US", or "USDA Zone 9"
Be very considerate of the content of photographs and if they reveal anything that can be used to de-anonymize you.
Pretty! Do you separate the flowers or mix in? I'm trying to learn how to co-plant for soil health.
