Slow Growing Season

After last year's garden sort of bombed, I wasn't so excited about planting this year. I really need to find a system that works~ whether it's small established plants to put in the beds or starting from seed. If anyone has advice for the high-altitude, sandy/clay gardens, please let me know.

Baby lime buds. Grow babies, grow!

Hmm. Don't know what this is. My guess is dill.

Sorry it's blurry, but this is new growth on one of our lilacs.

Ok, here's what happened. Dabney wants to garden very badly. I found some seed packets from a few years ago in the basement and Dabney was overjoyed. She scattered and hoed and scattered more and watered. To be honest, I didn't expect anything to come up, but check it out! She is happier than a clam.

Not sure about this one either, but I'm really hoping it's a pumpkin plant!
