Thanks! It's not my own pattern/design, and there are flaws that only I know about but judges could see, but it's something to think about!

I've enjoyed reading how you gingerly treated each plant in your small garden. Great news that you will be able to expand your love of gardening. Congrats on the new job too.

If you can find time and money, stockpile a few tools (and end of season plants)when they go on sale. Its a big change (expensive) coming from an apartment.

Thank you! It's easy to baby each plant when you've got just one of each in such a small space, haha. It's been a great learning experience and I think we'll have a good chance at a successful garden in a larger space because of it. Might do some fall gardening, might just wait till next Spring, who knows. There's a bunch of gardening tools in the garage and the shed in the backyard that we're inheriting, luckily, so I think we're set for now. Plus, my in-laws live about 10 minutes away so we can always borrow from them if we're not able to purchase something. Thanks for the tips!
