Garden plans, show me your big ideas :)

[snarfing]

Perhaps a bit early, but my season has basically ended here sicne I only did a small veggie garden this year. Plus im a bit of a gardening enthusiast so Ive planned out next years annual veggie garden already show me your garden plans in this thread.

I have a corner lot so all of my gardening is done in the "front yard" and there fore I have to keep it tidy or the town will come after me. I just got 8 new beds and my seeds are all gathered for my spring garden plans. I plan on putting a layer of woodchips between all of these beds and to hide the weird part of my driveway I am putting some beds on, and Ive already started laying irrigation down. Plus going to put a short 2 foot "fence" around it so it looks planned. no deer here on my part of long island so no need to worry about them. I placed it next to my "tall meadow bed" which mimics a tall open meadow thats native to me, full of tons of 5-6 foot tall plants in the back like goldenrod, ironweed, and swamp milkweed and soem shorties down front like yarrow, switchgrass, little bluestem and pearly everlasting.

I got some fun varieties too for the veggies, as you will come to expect with me, i like the weird stuff.

Sunchokes: weiss truffle and gigant
Watermelon: classic sugar baby
Leeks: American Flag
Broccoli: Asparbroc baby and Calabrese Green sprouting
Tomatoes: orange accordian and alice's dream
Radishes: French breakfast, pusa gulabi.
Artichoke: Purple italian globe
PAttypan: Partial Eclipse F1
Brussels Sprouts: long island improved
Carrots: Kyoto Red
Onion: Flat of italy
Tomatillo: Rio Grande Verde and Purple
Hot Peppers: Black Hungarian and brown jalapenos
Beans: Dragons tongue

And then I got some fun herbs like long island mammoth dill and hamburg rooted parsley as well as a healthy amount of fun nasturium colors.

The tree pictured is about 2 feet tall right now but is a Morus rubra (at least thats what the nursery who sold it to me said, its too young for me to be positive)

Post a pic of the tree. It should be large enough to tell if it’s mulberry tree.

Might not be sure if it is rubra or alba.

That makes sense

Yes im not sure if its rubra or a hybrid ! It shows mostly rubra characteristics but theres some that are alba which makes me think hybrid. But also its so young its hard to say what is due to age

It’s never too early for planning.

I ripped out a bunch of blackberries a few weeks back, so now I have around +/- 8’ x 30’ garden to work with. Preliminarily plans are to have a 30’ row of tomatoes and cucumbers on the north side along property fence line, 30’ row of peppers in center and 30’ rows of zinnias in the front. I may add a 4th row, but that’s more than enough for us along with other blackberry area and fig trees.
