We spent the past weekend yanking weeds, trimming the edges, spreading mulch, and sprucing up our front yard landscaping. Now we're just waiting for the perennials to grow. I also need to figure out what we are going to plant under our bay window. It has been a problem area ever since we re-did our landscaping in 2007.

How is your garden growing this spring?

You may have a dedicated space where you grow food, but if you don’t, keep reading because the information here also applies to edible landscaping and container gardening. For the cost of one plant you could buy a packet of seeds and grow thirty plants!
