I have a new flower bed this year, and I have had so much fun filling it up. Did you know that you can go to Lowe's, or whatever home improvement store you have with a large gardening center, and that they have a clearance plant center? These are nearly dead, or sometimes just a little ragged, plants that are drastically maked down to clearance prices. I have filled my bed with plants either grown from seed or obtained from the clearance area and brought back to life with water and Miracle Gro. Here are some photos:
I have vegetables, herbs, and flowers all together in my little garden. We are already enjoying cucumbers, onions, basil, thyme, rosemary, dill, oregano, chives, and on and on... I love walking out my front door and picking something to put into a recipe. Wonderful!!

You garden look lovely. Well you would not now that all those plant was nearly dead you have done a great job bring them all back to health.
All that hard work is paying off, most satisfying to gather from your own garden, well done.
Lucky you, Julie! I wish I could grow cucumbers. I've got rosemary, but I never use it. It's just one of those plants that I can't kill. :-)
