Very true. With summer at hand (may it rain!) soon the whole patch(es) will need constant care. Chilacayote squash will climb a fence. Calabacita squash runs and roots in any place it can. The maize has dwarf maize virus, but with some care will overcome that. Chilis and tomatoes are blooming mad 🙂 Kohlrabi went to seed, but is throwing up new branches and each will form a bulb. Grapes are swelling. Papaya are getting tall (mountain variety, which is more cold hardy). And, Saturday, an order from Grug Terra iof live black soldier fly grubs for the compost pile. ! Happy summer!

I’d be careful putting a tree near your garden beds, the roots will find a way into your planters. The tree may also shade your garden too much.

I’m in Queen Creek and I just had a large planter put in and now I’m fretting over what to fill it with. I have a lot of citrus and fruit trees along with several large shade trees along the back fence. Just looking for something that will provide shade and beauty for my garden area.

I wrote down the tasks in my planner to remind me. Thank you! One suggestion is this would be great as a little printable I can pin up in my garden shed, one sheet showing your great list.
