natives to find things that might survive.

My luxury has been my artichoke which I hope will produce more than 2 this next year. But I've chosen local type strawberries/raspberries, etc. which has helped with that aspect of the garden. My biggest problem with most of it was not getting stuff in in time and not being around to harvest. I got to water in between! Oh the humor of it all. Like all gardeners, I just hope that next year will be better.
