Since we are entirely pesticide-free here, the weeds are insanely difficult to combat and nothing works like the tiller. I also don't plant in rows - usually spirals, or clumps, or winding zig-zags. Once the plants get really big you can't tell, but in the beginning it's whimisical and fun. I always plant a pinwheel of greens, like spokes radiating out from a center of herbs or black-eyed susans. I had to give up that garden, though, because a creeping weed in my yard won the battle after many hard years of struggle. Ah well. I'm a bit too busy to keep up several gardens now, but after reading this post I think I need to go out and plant! It's been a long, chilly spring so I'm pretty behind on planting - but them I remember that I'm behind every year and in the end, we still get food. Later than most, but that's kinda fun too!<BR/><BR/>Your gardens look lovely!piscesgrrlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12279344142538980436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34836258.post-12427444346642213582008-06-02T14:09:00.000-04:002008-06-02T14:09:00.000-04:00Your yard looks so different from when we were the...Your yard looks so different from when we were there!
