As I mulled over what to plant in them for the coming year... I always kept coming back to different varieties of ... you guessed it... tomatoes! I think I want to grow up to be you. ;)<br /><br />Some people just wish I would grow up!kitsapFGhttp://www.modernvictorygarden.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5597627580631284872.post-49511216228949985662010-01-06T21:25:33.895-08:002010-01-06T21:25:33.895-08:00The giant tomato plants look so good, I'd say ...The giant tomato plants look so good, I'd say ornamental.

I have a lot of time on my hands through the winter ;-)<br /><br />I bought a rosemary plant to replace one I had for years, that I killed by cutting it back too much. In fact, I've bought three of them, but left the first two in the garden in WA, and they winter killed. This one was left in a pot, and made the trip to AZ with us. It will go back to WA in the spring, and be planted in the garden.Annie*s Grannyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04772261218172078099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5597627580631284872.post-41277011420339279032010-01-06T17:35:59.311-08:002010-01-06T17:35:59.311-08:00I love the idea of using all the potted plants.

I can just see it now...another dozen buckets, with stakes nailed to the roof eaves ;-) Actually, that might be a good spot for the zucchini!Annie*s Grannyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04772261218172078099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5597627580631284872.post-91503139555988692902010-01-06T14:39:50.923-08:002010-01-06T14:39:50.923-08:00I had to tie my buckets to my fence last year.

Next fall I'll be home when the leaves fall, so I will not have to rely on the nursery for compost any more.<br /><br />********<br />Erin, yes! Except I do have the riding lawn mower in there now, but there is still lots of room for me and my stuff. We'll be putting in the ceiling this spring, with attic insulation, so my seedlings should stay quite comfy.<br /><br />********<br />Ribbit, I'm not very careful with rotation. I know I should be, but it never seems to work that way. I just plant and keep my fingers crossed.<br /><br />********<br />Thanks, Dan.
