I can haz garden!

I FINALLY got my garden in. It has yellow bush beans, peas (edible pod and not), half-long carrots and both red and black radishes. Oh, and the chives are running wild, as usual.

All sown by the world's most inept gardener, in a space about the size of a filing cabinet.

We'll see if anything edible turns out.

I also have lavender, mint and a pot of garlic chives that come back every year without any help (or hindrance) from me.

yeah we like mint too but not to the extent that the mint likes the garden. We've found that with mint it pays to be violent every other year or so and eradicate most of it otherwise it takes over the entire garden...

That's what my chives do. They even take over the lawn.
