My friend S dropped off 3 new tomato plants and some annual flowers a few weeks ago. I told her she was keeping me busy with planting!
From left to right: Pear tomato (plum variety), a couple of Juliet cherry tomatoes (plum/cherry hybrid), some annual flowers, including a begonia plant. I had previously planted 2 san marzano tomato plants (plum variety) and 2 basil plants. She told me the tomatoes will get bushy and I would get tomatoes in July. She doesn't protect them from critters and some will get bitten but whatever. I am hoping the 2 basil plants do well for the summer as that will be it for them when winter comes. The tomatoes are also just for the summer.
I also really enjoy cutting tarragon and mint from the yard, not really a garden just a few herbs. I suppose I am forming a garden now.

Sounds like your garden’s coming together beautifully—tomatoes, basil, mint, flowers... love it! Can’t wait to hear how those plants do come July.
Wonderful!
It sounds like your garden is naturally taking shape, and with those tomatoes, basil, tarragon, and mint, you’re on your way to a delicious summer harvest
Basil to go with your tomatoes - perfect. Great oaks from little acorns grow, so great gardens from small pots develop. 😊
Hope you get plenty tomatoes :-D Great to grow your own food :-D
Happy Gardening!
Awesome!
Wonderful! All the best with your garden!
Oh, what a friend! great to see your new plants!
In time for the summer. I like your friend a lot.
Christine que lindas as plantas aqui tenho hortelã, boa semana bjs.
You will like the home grown tomatoes. They are much more tasty than store bought tomatoes.
So kind of your friend to give you those wonderful plants for your garden, Christine.
Great, that would be something to create a garden for you!

What a lovely gift from your friend S! It sounds like you're well on your way to having a fantastic little garden this summer.
.....even if a few critters get a taste, there should be plenty for you to enjoy. Happy planting and harvesting!
That sounds like a nice little garden to me! :)
I'd say its a garden. Are you enjoying your new pastime?
So nice of your friend to drop off these plants and flowers.
I wish you happy gardening.
All the best Jan
My father-in-law has a fairly decent Garden in his backyard he showed me on Father's Day. Way too much work for me. I also don't have a green thumb but rather the kiss of death
