when are you sowing your garden this year?

Just saw new seed displays going up at Home Depot last night.

You should sign up and get those magazines. There's a ton of good information as far as when to plant, what the plants prefer as far as soil pH, and they are a far greater deal (moneywise and variety) than what you can get at Home Depot.

+1 for Bakers Creek Seeds. Very good variety.

We're still harvesting lemons, limes, and tomatoes from the greenhouse. Soooooo much better than the tasteless crap in the grocery stores.

Is there a small lemon or lime tree that one can grow?

We have 3 small lemons, 2 small limes, and a significantly larger lime tree in the greenhouse. The little ones are ~2-3 feet tall, the big lime is around 6 feet tall. They all came from local greenhouses, except one of the lemon trees which my wife started from a seed. With our setup, they bear fruit pretty much year round. Watch what type of lime tree you get, as our big one has some wicked sharp 3 inch thorns.

Sounds awesome. Are the one's that are not in the greenhouse planted or in pots?

They're all potted, the smaller ones in about 5 gallon pots, and the big lime tree in about a 15 gallon one. We move them in during the colder part of the year, and outside from about mid-May to mid-September.

I also just ordered her some Cavendish dwarf banana trees, so we'll see how that works out.

Thanks, I'll have to give that a try.
