Leafing Out
Hi all, My name is Vanessa and I live in Colorado now.
Ive been here 3 years as of this July and this spring will be my 3rd year planting my garden. I have 3 10x4 raised beds behind my family owned Motel that manage and live at.
I like growing odd colored vegetables, and different things. My 1st year it was Blue pumpkins, black watermelons, and strawberry blonde sunflowers. The 2nd year, White pumpkins, goji berries, and ruby corn. Ive had many more items in the beds along with the odd one's but I just like the strange things best I guess, hehe. This year I'm debating on adding another bed, a drip watering system, or a removable fence (since things have been stolen from my garden each season so far, and a permanent fence would require a permit)
Well Im gonna cruise the forum a while, I'm sure you'll see me around asking questions and what not.
O and in case you were wondering, this year the strange items Im planning on growing are Red pumpkins, Strawberry popcorn, Purple asparagus, and blue potato's. I might even add some purple carrot's but would have to increase the depth of my bed for those so Im still debating..
I would include a picture of my strawberry blond sunflowers and I that got put in the local paper last year, but im apparently too new to the group.(edit: wait, wait, I may have figured it out, dang maybe not..lol) I uploaded a pic but dont know where It went apparently! Haha

. Oh and white pumpkins made the best pies! Would love to see your blonde sunflowers. I like to grow different sunflowers too! I've never seen a black watermelon, how was the flavor?
