First Photos

Here are the first pictures from out little slice of heaven.

The first picture below is our "mesclun mix" from Vesey's Seeds, we planted this on April 4th 2009.

Here is our "east bunch" of pots. We call them the "east bunch" because they sit along the east side of the patio.

And here is the "west bunch", they are located at the west end of the balcony. West Bunch is home to our only other surviving pole bean, you can see its trashed leaves (yellowed) in the upper left hand pot. There is a third pole bean beside it that has since passed away, I deemed it dead today.

These are D-star's strawberries, $1.98 Special's from the local Rona. They hang out on the Outer West balcony railing looking at the traffic in the alley.














Here we have our Shady Corner, this pot is home to a Blue Lake Stringless Green Pole Bean, a bunch of chives, and some more Mesclun Mix. The pole bean is one of only 2 survivors from our initial batch of 12. Most died when being transplanted from 1x1 starter cells into 3x3 peat pots. It was quite a tragic feeling for the Master Gardener.
