Next are garden vegetables. In order: red pepper, red potato, peanut, squash, black bean. All of these grew from seeds we got out of the vegetables when we ate them. I bought raw peanuts from the grocery store and planted them and they actually grew. For the potatos, I soaked them in water until they started to bud and produce roots and then I cut them up and planted them. I have noticed that since I placed mulch around them, something is eating the leaves. I think it is slugs.
For the black bean I went to Walmart and bought those plastic bags of beans you see in the soup aisle. I planted them and they actually sprouted and are growing like crazy.

The trees in order are: pecan, asian chestnut, peach, asian pear, and red delicious apple. I have at least two of each but didn't see the need to post all the pics. If you have never had asian pear, I recommend that you buy some from the grocery store. They are crispy like an apple, but have a pear taste, not mushy.
I have been planting things with a fury because of the skyrocketing fuel and food costs.
Also planted but not pictured include onions, carrots, lettuce, corn, green pepper, garden been, broccoli, cucumber, and cantaloupe.

Changed,
That's quite a Victory Garden you have there!
Looks great!
We all really need to follow Changed's example and get out in the yard and plant some stuff. It will help on the budget, give us exercise, provide us with healthier food than we can buy in the store....
Thanks for the pics, Changed...

Wonderful Work!
Thanks for posting, Changed. It's always fun and inspiring to see another's projects.
I will have to try those Asian Pears - that's something that I've never eaten. Might have to add that to our orchard if we like them. Thanks!

Awesome Changed ! I wish I could grow some nut trees here but I've been told by all the nurseries they just don't do well here.
