Nothing special, just some potting soil and some cups.

Fill up with dirt, make a hole and drop the Brownies in and water lightly.

    Nice selection!

    I’ve grown Tromboncino before. They’re tasty, very hardy, and climb without any coaxing if you give them something to climb up. Their shape is also highly amusing.

    Just in case you haven’t heard, raspberries - and I assume blackberries - spread pretty aggressively. I put one in my raised bed two falls ago. The beds are 4’ x 8’ and I planted it at one of the long ends. The next season I planted some pepper plants in the far end of the bed. The raspberry bush had overtaken 3/4 of the bed by the fall, but it hasn’t tried to escape the raised bed (yet?).

      Yeah I have a trellis set up for them to spread. Doing a living mulch with them using clover, strawberries, green onion, and dill.

      I tried the burying a tote in the ground. I’m sure my Neighbor has shoots coming up…. I find them in my turf, but those get dealt with when mowing, but the flower bed… god they get about 12’ down it and I gotta keep on top of them.

      I’m gonna give it one more year before I start actually trying to remove it. I pruned it properly start of last season and got great yields. Birds loved it haha.
