Victory Garden Plants

Mulberries are dropping from the trees out front! BYOBucket and grab as many as you can.

This easy-to-grow, self-seeding flower seems lighter than air as it dances in the faintest of breezes.

One of my very favorite flowers to grow—and infuse vodka with.

They’re fun, they’re edible, they’re ten feet tall!

These leafy boys are perennial and tropical.

This mixed variety is one I haven’t tried before, but I love the microgreens.

These beans will climb up anything nearby, whether a banboo pole, a fence post, or a giant sunflower!

Nasturtium have been a new favorite plant this spring! Both the leaves and flowers are edible. The lilypad-like leaves pop up early and are spicy like arugula. I can’t wait to try the flowers!

Supermarkets call these “English Cucumbers” and wrap them in plastic, but gardeners know the truth—Japanese cucumbers are the tastiest, crunchiest cukes around.

I am obsessed with okra this year. I’ve never grown it, but Baker Creek says this is their best-selling variety and I love the red-orange color.

This is a cool-season crop, so there isn’t much time to plant spinach this spring. I’m an optimist though, so I say we try it. And if we fail… then we’ll try again in fall!

This climbing pole bean was brought from Tennessee to Oklahoma by the Cherokee people.
