We were hoping to find some veggies, but I guess it&#8217;s a bit early. So, we bought a bunch of seeds to start indoors and a few pretty plants. This year we are hoping to get our raised beds built and began laying out the garden. I want something that will be green year round, so we&#8217;ll use plenty of evergreens along the entire fencing (especially in the back, to block the entire alley from seeing in our house). I also am in love with succulents, so those will be primary. My favorite flowers are white, so that will be my starting color. Once we have a well established garden, I&#8217;ll add bits of color here and there.<\/p>\n<p><img src=\"http:\/\/farm4.static.flickr.com\/3102\/2339225118_0bf3f5394d_o.jpg\" width=300px> <img src=\"http:\/\/farm3.static.flickr.com\/2252\/2338390109_6b50bdc864_o.jpg\" width=300px><br \/>\n<img src=\"http:\/\/farm4.static.flickr.com\/3157\/2339224688_b80b4e72e3_o.jpg\" width=300px> <img src=\"http:\/\/farm4.static.flickr.com\/3248\/2338390655_8d898e4b49_o.jpg\" width=300px><br \/>\n<img src=\"http:\/\/farm3.static.flickr.com\/2067\/2338395881_f720f8fc2c_o.jpg\" width=300px> <img src=\"http:\/\/farm4.static.flickr.com\/3249\/2339226536_094230f4ce_o.jpg\" width=300px><br \/>\n<img src=\"http:\/\/farm4.static.flickr.com\/3109\/2339228706_dd29b05bbf_o.jpg\" width=300px> <img src=\"http:\/\/farm3.static.flickr.com\/2385\/2339228488_8b8ecc601b_o.jpg\" width=300px><br \/>\n<img src=\"http:\/\/farm4.static.flickr.com\/3083\/2339227828_7d5fc4103c_o.jpg\" width=300px> <img src=\"http:\/\/farm3.static.flickr.com\/2032\/2338392783_c050aaf0c8_o.jpg\" width=300px><br \/>\n<img src=\"http:\/\/farm3.static.flickr.com\/2015\/2338394179_8d66ec9e7e_o.jpg\" width=300px> <img src=\"http:\/\/farm4.static.flickr.com\/3102\/2339227162_deb3f54780_o.jpg\" width=300px><br \/>\n<img src=\"http:\/\/farm4.static.flickr.com\/3232\/2339225742_7e8fbf99b6_o.jpg\" width=300px> <img src=\"http:\/\/farm3.static.flickr.com\/2266\/2339225470_14b935fbf8_o.jpg\" width=300px><br \/>\n<img src=\"http:\/\/farm3.static.flickr.com\/2253\/2339228230_6213e07e49_o.jpg\" width=500px> <\/p>\n<p><img src=\"http:\/\/farm3.static.flickr.com\/2041\/2339226718_328162d7f3_o.jpg\" width=500px> <\/p>\n<p><img src=\"http:\/\/farm3.static.flickr.com\/2069\/2338392963_a90fdc8f0f_o.jpg\" width=500px> <\/p>\n<p><img src=\"http:\/\/farm3.static.flickr.com\/2397\/2339228334_3865049640_o.jpg\" width=500px> <\/p>\n<p>______________________________________<\/p>\n<p>When we got home we gathered all of the planters to decide who goes where.
