Hi Kris: I use pots around the 15 gallon size, and plant one eggplant in each pot. Use the same type of fertilizer as you would for tomatoes and peppers, as they are all related. Good luck, and thanks for stopping by! Teresa

Hi: I’m actually about to redo my raised bed area. But my raised beds are about 3 feet by 3 feet. I would definitely recommend you invest in the best compost, aged manure, worm castings and potting soil to fill your raised beds. And yes, I did finally order a glider so I can rest a bit. Finally. šŸ˜‰ Thanks for your message. Teresa

May I ask what size are your raised beds? Board size? The soil you use?

Or garden is so inviting looking. You just need a bench there to watch the bees and butterflies.

Rosalind Creasy's personal garden was a huge inspiration to me! Lot's of arbors, walls, containers and raised beds.

I do have lots of butterflies, bees and birds. Plenty of bugs too … the good and the bad. LOL. Hope you'll stop by again. Teresa

Those flamboyant "showgirls" just throw their good looks around for us all to drool over, LOL! That mix of California poppies and yarrow? is just eye-popping. Bet you have tons of butterflies!

I know just what you mean, Connie. The showgirls are so easy to love, even if they don't last forever. And I adore when pretty plants reseed themselves. Carla, I'm delighted you liked my veggie man. These vegetables were so attractive, I just had to play with my food. Appreciated your comments. All best, Teresa
