King Arthur Bell Peppers - July 2022
Nat and I often reminisce about what we 'used to have' when it comes to vegetable gardening. Back in Elmhurst, we had good-sized, enclosed raised bed vegetable garden. When we moved, we inherited a yard that has A LOT of shade and despite trying both in-ground and a (small) raised bed garden, we've had limited success with vegetables. I posted much the same story here back in 2018 when I lamented that we grew just ONE tomato . But, things changed a little last year when we moved our raised bed from out in the garden to our patio - where we DO, indeed, get overhead full sun during the middle of the day. That meant that last year (2021), we grew tomatoes ( an indeterminate variety ) that produced small fruits that we ate most of the Summer. It was a little bit of an out-of-control vine and it spilled out of our bed and down into the lawn. This year, we decided to grow a few things. I'll post about the tomatoes on another day....
