i has a garden

Aug 02, 2008 22:02

In Texas (for lots of unexplained reasons). I'm learning to garden. These are my first plants. It's garlic! Little baby garlics! All you have to do is stick one of the cloves into some dirt and water it a little bit, and it grows. Not too deep or it can't sprout; the one at the back left is tiny because it was too deep and I only fished it out a couple of days ago - but look, it's sprouted already.




I've also got an avocado seed trying to sprout, but I'm not sure if it'll work. The seed has cracked, but I don't see any roots appearing. I planted some nasturtiums and some passion flowers, but the seeds were more than ten years old and they haven't sprouted; I think they're probably bad by now. I might try some onions, and an orange tree. I have a peach seed in the fridge, but peaches are high maintenance! I'm looking for other easy things to grow; gardening is fun, but the less I'm obligated to take care of it, the more I will be willing to take care of it.

om nom nom, gardening
