A ton of onions and i potted up garlics too. Mom bought spice and herb seeds and wants me to plant those too. and I planted 2 giant aloe plants and a spider plant.

Edit: The onions are large red onions, medium size early white onions, and extra large golden sweet onions. the garlic label just says early garlic.

Uff.. This was a busy weekend.
WE planted few square meters of beans, and also peas.
Few months ago we planted a whole garden of potato, over 300 meters.
Back then also garlic and Italian onion. Garlic has been killed 1/3 by wind and salt.
Now we have planted several lines of Croatian corn called /Pajdash/.
For this year we planted apricot, plum, pear, cherry, medlar, sorbus domestica, aronia melanocarpa... And also lots of palms and ornamental plants like Yuccas.

I planted an Indiana banana, a.k.a pawpaw, a.k.a asimina triloba. I have heard of the song "Way Down Yonder in the Pawpaw Patch," but I never knew what a pawpaw was. Since I've been into edible gardening, I decided to learn about pawpaws. Ironically, after researching pawpaws, I discovered a whole patch of pawpaw in my parents' back yard. Well, I got the shovel and dug up six of them to transplant to my yard. Pawpaws supposedly don't transplant well, but the robust plants from my parents' yard are doing fine.

Here are some pics from my parents' yard:

Tiffany,

That's pretty cool to find them like that. Paw Paws have a deep tap root so dig deep if you dig anymore up. Where are they from?

I don't know how they got there, and the pawpaws certainly weren't there when I was a little girl. My parents have lived in the same house for 40 years about 1 mile from the lake. A creek and many wooded, undeveloped lots surround my parents' house and neighboorhood. My theory is that these woods are the home to some pawpaws which grow naturally in this area (western NC). Probably some random animal or animals had a feast of pawpaws and then came to my parents backyard to relieve themselves. There is a 6-foot by 300-foot thicket that borders my parent's property where the pawpaw seeds germinated and made themselves to home.

I remember eating wild pawpaws that grew along the banks of the Potomac River in Maryland when I was a kid on fishing trips. I liked them, though I remember them being a little "funky".

I hope that they taste good. I can do without the funkiness. I can't complain though because I got them for free. Do they really taste like bananas/mangos? I hope so. I love these fruits.

I bet there are people here who could give you a better description of the flavor than I can, since it's literally been 3 decades since I tasted one. But I'd say some combination of bananas, mangos, and that funky taste you get in some tropical fruit (almost a cheese-like taste), is how I remember it. To my tastes, they were definitely not as good as mangos, but hey, you can grow pawpaws where you live and you can't grow mangos, outdoors at least! Good luck. Let us know what you think they taste like when you get to that point.

Today I finished my tomato plants which brings to me to 30-35 plants. I planted pie pumpkins for eating and blue pumpkins and miniature pumpkins for decoration. I also got butternut squash planted and that brings me pretty much to an end for the veggies. Oh wait, I forgot to put my cabbage out so will go out in a few mins. and try to get some of them done tonight.

One of my brother in Laws gave me some plants, a Hot pepper, something he called a Hobo, grown in the caribbean from south asia I think (still researching it) and a seedling mango from the awesome tree he has in his backyard, and a Genipa americana ( not to be confused with the fruit with the common name Genipa).
