Gardenind can be not only fun, but also a good way to provide your family with fresh and delicious herbs and vegetables. Many good looking plants with beautiful flowers can also be transformed in a delicious dinner. Like zucchini, for example. It is very easy to grow, it looks great, with his big yellow flowers, and a single plant can produce enough zucchinis to eat during the entire summer. Just buy a pack of seeds and put them in fertile soil in April, and, by June, you will harvest your first zucchini. The plant will continue to produce zucchini until mid-October.
Another great idea is to plant aromatic herbs, like parsley, coriander, oregano, sage. They smell very well, they look really decorative and they are the fresh ingredients you need for the perfect salad. Choose a nice corner of your garden for the aromatic plants. Many of them, like oregano and rosemary, last through the winter in the soil and will grow the next spring in the same place. Some of these aromatic herbs can be grown from seed, but it is much easier to buy seedlings. You can put most of the seedlings in the garden, but keep some for an indoor pot. This way, you can enjoy fresh herbs during the winter.
For a nice looking hedge in your garden, plant some green beans next to a wall or fence. In just a few weeks, the wall will be all dressed up in green, with small, delicate pink, white or red flowers. Another few weeks down the road, the flowers will transform in delicious fresh haricots. Sunflower is an actual flower, but his seeds are really tasty and wholesome. So, buy some fresh, un roasted sunflower seeds and put them in the ground in late March or early April. By August, you will have stunningly, huge yellow flowers and, two months later, you can snack on your own sunflower seeds.
