Me too! I have a green thumb.I'd love to have a nice little garden patch. I've got a 20' by 24' garden miles from home, but I don't have much time. A garden right in the back would be nice, especially a neat one like that. My favorite plants are the purple coneflower (medicinal), asparagus (I'm poor), and rhubarb (mom's pies).
You could make you a small garden with some garden ties...if you don't have deer and other animals in your area, you probably don't need a fence around it. I have a 20x50 and it's way too big for my liking. I get all enthusiastic in the spring and plant every single bed....then by this time, each year, I'm exhausted with all the yield, but I can't bring myself to kill the plants.
My canteloupe plants are coming forth with some fruit, so I have to keep watering them...and I end up just watering the whole garden.....argh.........
