Here is my lettuce in the potted container. They look very interesting and pretty on the deck.

See those sticks leaning up against the house? I planted some clematis that were on special at Home depot. $5 each. They should come in strong and beautiful next year.

A closer look. This one is hot pink.  As you can see, this one in starting to blossom again.

Here is a close up of the sign (same one as above)

This one is purple and I put it in the middle

And this one is a light pink. The foliage was mostly dead on this one so I stripped it back and it is already starting to grow again.

See the little vines starting again there?

I find my corn to be kind of comical. They are so short! haha! They arent getting enough sun in this location. Next year Ill plant them on the East garden of the deck.

Here are my beans. flast night I had a dream that I had a pretty arch in this corner of the yard. The beans climbed and covered it nicely. I think I may in fact do just that. :) It would look quite pretty in the corner which is currently boring, with nothing special going on. With the clematis climbing the wall and the bean arch, it could be quite attractive! We will see!

Here are some tomatoes in the west garden. They seem to be doing ok here! I wasnt expecting that! I thought it wouldnt be enough sun light.

mmm tomatoes...

And here is some parsley! Yay! One of my favourites I have grown this year, next to my lettuce and Swiss Chard!

And here is the tomato plant in west garden of the deck under the ash. its ok. not wonderful though.

My Beets are getting ready to pick. I picked a few today and they are good. The only thing I dont like is there is something happening to the beet leaves. I am learning as I go here but I want to get rid of this problem before it gets worse. :S

Here is a closer look at the beet leaves

And here is a look at the whole patch

This is what the beets look like in the west garden. As you can see, they are a far cry from the ones in the south garden. So small. Not enough sun here for beets I guess. I will not put beets in this garden next year.

And here are the beets I tried in the garden along the west of the deck, under the ash tree. Again, very small. I wont plant beets here either next year.

Here is the mint I planted to help with pests in the middle of my garden, close to the radishes.
