On the way home from work yesterday, I stopped and picked up a few different varieties of tomatoes, sweet peppers, jalapenos, water mellon, and what ever else looked good. oh, you are so lucky to be able to grow those things in your garden. i was able to do so in ontario, but not here - unless i erect a green house. your little ones will carry on the tradition of a kitchen garden too. kids just don't forget stuff like that. marigolds are a working flower in a vegetable bed - like you said, they keep munching critters off your veggies - and there's no reason why your vegetable garden shouldn't look pretty too. sometimes i'll plant the odd red cabbage in with my flowers 'cause i like the look of them - wierd huh? planting garlic buds in with your roses is supposed to be real good for the roses. i haven't tried that yet cause i don't have roses, but i do plant garlic. i plant sunflower seeds every year because they look great - make a nice cut flower and attract birds in the fall. thought about harvesting the seeds once but the birds got to them first, which was the purpose afterall <g> hope you guys have a happy day getting your hands dirty. how's mamma feeling? auntie
