Our Little Desert Garden

Ok so this is the 1st year we actually have a real garden, we have been married for almost 9 years and we finally got a garden started. We had to build a fence so our fur babies would not get in the garden. We first put up a plastic fence. But carlie just went right under the fence and got in and started eating our plants. So we inturn had to put up a metal more sturdier fence that we barried 6 inches under ground so carlie (the little dog) would not go under it.
Ha Ha the force stikes back....


Im inside the garden neener neener they can't come in...

She is such a cutie, we love her....


Ok so we got some corn growing.


This is a corn plant, basil, stevia (carlie really likes this one becuase it is a natural sugar plant), and thyme.
We got these from the neighbor, which are hot pepper plants (shawn is happy).


These are artichokes... They are growing good.....


Lemon Basil...


My most favorite part of the garden is my tomato plants, yes mine because shawn doesn't like tomatoes. They are so yummy and are doing wonderful. There are 3 plants in there.

And this is what is growin right now on one of the tomato plants... The tomato is so sweet and juicy... Yummmm

We have alot of herbs, we like herbs... good stuff this is spicy globe basil.

We got 7 cucumber plants from Uncle Dale.... Yeah more to our garden... : ) They are doing wonderful as well.



Ok so we have so much aloe vera, if anyone wants any let me know... Its growing everywhere preety much in our backyard.



This is more Basil, Sage and another corn plant.



More corn and more herbs.....


Chives anyone?


Banana Pepper plant... It has a huge one growing already see pic below.....


This just sprung up over night practically.... hmm I wonder when I should pick it? I will have to invesitgate that.


More babies to put in the garden in the future. For now they are in our sun room..... Thats all for now folks.....
