Full Garden Tour: Growing in Every Inch!
Zone 6 (Chicago, IL, USA)
Hey there! It's been a long road but the garden is fully planted and I am super excited to share the first FULL garden tour of the 2024 growing season. We will take a look at many of the plants I am growing, talk about what is doing well and some things that I am struggling with because we all do :-).
I hope you and your garden are doing well and thanks for watching!
