Confessions of a would-be gardner

I spent a LOT of time nurturing the plant pictured above before a kindly neighbor let me know that my carrot seeds had washed to other parts of the garden during all the rains, and that this was a weed.



For awhile this spring, this was the greenest thing in my yard. The maple grove. Unfortunately, it was in the gutters.
There are times when I don't think I am "getting" this garden thing. Next year, CSA.

You really make me laugh. Isaac has been diligent at getting photos of our garden. I'll have to upload some to blogger tonight. He picked a cucumber and arugula for our salad last night.

That is the prettiest little weed!! Jeff says you should tell people that you are growing maple trees hydroponically - which is far more difficult than earth growing.
