Tracy27's Pre-Spring Vegetable Garden garden

Garden Type: Vegetable | Sun: Full Sun | Soil: Don't Know

This garden has been archived.

I have a patio garden consisting mostly of Earthboxes. This winter, I’m growing celery, Oregon sugar snap peas, spinach, arugula, and leeks. I’ve already harvested a cauliflower I grew earlier.

    I see you’re growing Lemongrass. Has it been pretty easy? We are growing some this season, but I’ve never grown it before.

    You know, this is my first stab at it too, and to be honest, it’s still in the nursery container. I hear it’s pretty easy – likes well-drained, sandy, moist soil – but it’s a little fussy about temperature; can’t take a freeze and prefers partial sun.

    Yeah. That’s pretty much what I read. Looks like yours is doing great so far. We’ll see how the Southeastern temperatures treat it.
