RE: Planting in a com.garden plot

**&* <u*@comcast.net>**

Root crops...beets and carrots...can be partially hidden under other plants.
Marigolds probably won't be picked because they don't work well as a cut
flower, unless really done right, and some of the older non-hybrid varieties
will help keep some bugs away.  Tomatoes are easy bait for would be
plantlifters (shoplifters), but if you are determined to plant them, try a
green variety, (green zebra), they ripen by getting green stripes in them
and most people won't know that they are ripe.

Good Luck

Subject: [cg] Planting in a com.garden plot

Hello,

I just joined a community garden last weekend and I have my own individual 
plot.  I have not really done much gardening and the plot is rather tiny, 
4ft by 2ft(estimated).  I need to put flowers in the plot along with 
anything else that I want, which is some vegetables,  The plot is completely

open to the public, so I am looking for something that isnt going to be 
easily picked.  Does anyone have any suggestions on what to use, flowers and

veggies?

Thanks,
Jenny Hampton
