Not sure yet. nossy Send a noteboard - 06/04/2013 02:06:49 PM

This is the first growing season I'll spend in this house, so I haven't had time to prepare. I will do the "lazy gardening" most likely, which will be finding pre-grown plants and sticking them in the ground. I don't have much space, and it will be pretty simple: Do I have enough sun left, and if not, will this do anything in the shade?

I know I'll have herbs. I don't like existing w/o them. Most likely a lot of lettuces. Probably strawberries. Blueberries, but I'm not sure how well that will work.

We already have planted two apple trees, but it will be awhile before we get anything off them.
