I am trying something new this year - container gardening. Partially because I have run out of room in my main garden (and the extra garden is just too shaded) and partly because I want to try something new :o)
I started this blog ten years ago with this quote "Gardening is something I enjoy, but not something I am good at. So, in the vein of, it is all a learning experience, I have started this blog in the hopes that in, say, ten years or so, I may have actually learned something. :o)" Ten years later and I have learned so much. My gardens bring me so much joy. I still have much more to learn, but I no longer feel as though I have two black thumbs... so i guess this blog worked :)

Planting potatoes
I planted seven more potatoes today. I was planning on planting nine, but then realized that I still needed to split one of the big Yukon Gold potatoes.
I planted three red potatoes in the first row (closest to the porch), one red potato than two fingerling potatoes in the second row, and one Yukon Gold in the third row. I will add the soon-to-be-split two Yukon Gold potatoes in the end row.
These are in addition to the two fingerlings and two red potatoes I planted last week in the bucket.
Fingers crossed the blight doesn't get them this year!
