DD7 Garden, and my hand at perenials....
Made it out to the campsite, so I took pictures of the gardens out there.
This is dd7 garden. It has: carrots, lettuce, beans(that the rabbits are eating), tomatoes, radishes, petunias and 1 mystery flower.
Here is her new strawberry patch, beside it are 3 trees my mom started from seed, I will plant them next weekend, I needed one more bigger pot to act as a protective barrier from ds17 and the weed eater:
And my perennial gardens. If they do well, when I thin them next year, I might try them at home:
These were some clearance geraniums that are supposed annuals, we'll see, I have had them come back in the past:
All the gardens are new beds. Built with reclaimed lumber and free soil, its such nice soil, very loamy. It was free as well, owner of the campsite puts out piles of dirt from where he's working clearing land, and we're able to harvest it to use in our sites.

He's destroyed 4 other trees.... they were tender seedlings. DD7 was just 6 and she was mad at him for weeks. So I'm going to see about cutting a planter bottom out, and maybe a slit on the side so we can pull it up and out when the tree is big enough....

WTG! I love the variegated leaves on the one plant in the 3rd. pic. How wonderful that your dd is excited about gardening! Her garden looks awesome to me as well as that bunny. A short fence around it would help keep more food for people.

The Variegated leaf is call Shepherds Cross, I was surprised when it bloomed, I thought it was just greenery.
