It’s all in…mulched and ready to grow…
I’m trying square-foot-type gardening, partly because I don’t have much faith in some of the peppers I started—not much root to them–and went out and bought some bigger ones, meaning I ended up with 12 bell peppers of assorted types, and 4 sweet banana peppers. Same with the tomatoes: I planted 3 better boys before the monsoons hit and they looked pretty bedraggled when it was all over, so I bought 3 bigger ones. There are also 1 sweet cherry 100, 2 romas, and one husky. There’s a lot of basil, some sage, rosemary, parsley, and oregano, as well as the broccoli and onions I planted in March. I put down some carrot and beet seeds around the blueberry bushes…and don’t forget the bush beans and pole beans. If it all grows, I’ll have plenty to eat and give away!
We’ve mulched around the entire house and it looks great…
I planted some wave petunias in an old stump (ala Pinterest), and surrounded geraniums with marigolds in the old wash tubs…
This lovely Sweet William is peeping out from under the daylilies..
When the rain finally returned, we brought out the houseplants and porch furniture…
Now, it’s just maintenance…and a fair bit of luck…
Peace
Growing Every Season 
All looks lovely. I waited until last weekend to buy plants. What do you use for mulch? So neat looking!

It’s a black hardwood mulch that we buy by the cubic yard from our fave nursery. I should have waited to buy plants, but the earlier ones were small and cheap…

It feels so great to have all the planting and mulching done, and just wait for the harvest to begin. Love your porch. I’m so far behind this year, because of endless rains, I haven’t even begun to mulch.
