Like many people in the suburbs, I have a small garden in the back yard. I’ve been gardening for about seven years and have learned a lot about the care and upkeep of my garden and plants.
When I first started gardening, it was a spur of the moment decision. I was shopping at the local Home Depot and saw a bunch of seeds on an end cap. I picked up a couple different varieties and headed home. Later on that weekend, I took a shovel and dug out a small area in the back yard, threw the seeds in the ground and watered them a little.
