Plans for spring planting

Tweet

Now that I have a place with a decent patio, and a dirt patch all around it, I'm going to plant some things this spring. I can't really put anything in the dirt because it's plain hardpan, but I can put really big pots up on bricks away from the ants and such. The plan is to get two dwarf blood orange trees, one meyer lemon tree, one lemon eucalyptus to put by the back door and keep the bugs away, two pots of tomatoes, and at least one pot of peppers. The only tough part is to find types of tree that are authorized to grow in my area- certain forms of citrus can't be grown because of fears or spreading blight and unwanted hybridization. It's a pain but it can be gotten around.
