It's a good year for Clematis

Hagley Hybrid & Multiblue

My vegetable garden is doing well also, with the exception of the beans I tried to grow in a shadier area. One bean in three rows came up! With all the rain, the seeds just sat in the ground and rotted. Luckily, the pole beans next to the trellis did grow. I'll be trying carrots, broccoli, and lettuce in that area next.

Here's my potatoes and strawberries. I realized I planted the potatoes too close together, so I'll have a bunch of baby potatoes, but that's ok. This is my first year growing potatoes.



The corn also came up just fine. If only I had more space in full sun.


I've also planted tomatoes and peppers, all of which are doing well this year.

The clematis are gorgeous. Wish mine would bloom :(
Everything is looking great, well done.

I have always wanted to grow potatoes, not enough room in the back yard now but I am thinking of alternative growing sets up for next year.

Your clematis is gorgeous, and the veggies are looking good too! Well done so far, please keep us updated.

I've been waiting impatiently, this is the first year my clematis has buds and it is LOADED! I don't even remember the color, but I'll have pics!
Wow, you sure have a beautiful spot for a garden!

What a pity the beans didn't make it but everything else looks good to me. Your clematis are producing plenty of lovely flowers for you this year. Could we have a close up of the multiblue flowers please?
