In addition to some Cardinal Climber vine (Ipomoea x multifida), cleome and French lavender seeds for the flower beds, we have added more Sow True vegetables:
Beet (Detroit Dark Red)
Beet (Early Wonder)
Parsnip (All American)
Pepper, Chile (Ancho/Poblano)
We are jumping on the sustainability band wagon and trying our hands at growing some of our own food. Neither of us has ever done much in the way of vegetable gardening, so this is a real experiment. The name of this endeavor came from the meditation labyrinth it shares space with.
