By using items I already had, I made a rustic looking fence panel!
As I mentioned in my spring yard walk, we finally planted our 10 cent roses & I couldn't wait to see what would happen with them!
I intentionally planted the climbing roses in the back & planned to put up a fence panel for them to climb on.
So I had the roses but not the fence panel.
Because I always want to do things on an extreme budget, I was putting off buying a fence panel. I couldn't see spending a ton of money on something that would eventually be covered up by roses!

Some thoughts on the 2019 garden.
I was super disappointed going into the garden this year.
Last year, I made plans to construct a more permanent garden area. I was going for perfect raised beds & a cute shed/greenhouse area.
By the time this year rolled around, I was pretty much over the entire gardening thing. After watching my garden turn into a complete disaster last year, it was up in the air if I was even going to attempt a garden, let alone perfect raised beds!
I finally made up my mind at the last minute to continue with a garden this year.

Planting the 2019 garden!
For the garden this year, I stuck to my favorites: tomatoes & peppers!
This year we returned to the local greenhouse to buy all of our plants.
For tomatoes, I got the San Marzano variety. I tried them last year & am trying them again this year. I got a different variety of Roma tomatoes this year. The ones last year were very seedy & I wasn't a big fan. I'm hoping to avoid that this year!
