Introducing My Spring 2025 Kitchen Garden

Today was a great day to get out in the garden. After getting the all-clear from Space City Weather, I couldn’t wait to get my tomatoes in the ground. That’s all I really planned to do today, but the weather was beautiful, and I couldn’t help but do a little re-potting as well. I’m hoping to extend a little beauty to our patio this year with some container gardening.

I’ll get a little more into the details of what I’m planting, along with tips/info, but for today I’ll just leave a quick overview of the members of my 2025 Spring Houston Kitchen Garden. I’m in zone 9.
