DarkRaptor Posted March 2, 2013 Report Share Posted March 2, 2013 This will hold pictures, thoughs and experiences on my garden. When i've designed my garden a part of it was specifically dedicated to cultivate vegetables, aromatic herbs and fruits. This year's winter have been a bit harsh so seeding and planting have been a little delayed, still i will post pictures to allow all interested to follow the garden progress. ~dark Phantom Orchid and gonzalocsdf95 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
