How does my garden grow?

This is how it all begins...2 tomato plants, a jalapeno, a sweet pepper, a cucumber, and I think 2 pumpkins (they just came up one day)

Here is the front yard. Isabel took the picture of the yellow roses and Josie took the picture of the chives. I took the one of the lavender. It is getting out of control, plus we have another one just like it.
