Tomatoes with okra coming up volunteer… the greenhouse in the distance and the zinnia patch behind the mesquite tree...

The zinnia patch. My wife wanted zinnias and she planted them in the veggie garden. They were taking it over, so I made a dedicated patch for the flowers. Everyone is happy with that….

Onions. I’ve only grown onions (successfully) one other year. This year my son gave me two bundles of sets that he didn’t have time to plant. I just tilled and stuck them in the ground randomly… the straight row on the right are dividing onions...

As y’all can see, I don’t prioritize “weeding”… but, if weeding produced one more of anything, I don’t know where I’d put it.

Very nice garden. I love new potatoes and green beans fresh from the garden...one of my favorites.

Onions planted from seed are the best way to go for me...largest and best storing onions with the least bolting.
