Garden update.

First produce of the season. H would be proud.
The first produce of the season!

Overview.
Growing garden.

Addition of strawberries on the back/left. Front left = radishes, spinach next (2 squares), lettuce (2 squares), carrots (front row), beets (2nd row). The 4 open squares in the back are going to be hollyhocks because that spot is almost impossible to get to for harvesting. The strawberries are perennials so those and the hollyhocks should come back every year if I cover the bed to keep it warm over the winter.
Addition of strawberry plants

14 Assorted tomatoes (hybrids, sweet 100s, some heirloom varieties, romas, and sandwich sized), butternut squash and acorn squash in column 3 - back and 2nd rows, jalapeƱos, habanero, and another pepper in upper right corner.
Salsa Garden

Finally, the butterfly/hummingbird garden with the blown glass feeder (a going away gift from my former co-workers).
