What Failed this year in your garden? - Page 2

The only thing we planted this year were flowers and about half of them didn't make it. This was our first spring in a new house so I am not sure if we just had bad soil or what.

Radishes. I just pulled them up today because they had huge leafy tops on them, but they came out puny and pink instead of round and red. Sometimes you never can tell.

My hollyhocks didn't make it. They've been doing good for three years, but for some reason, this year, they didn't want to live anymore.

I have Hollyhock all over my property and they are doing great this year . My roses are really coming along now that I switched to watering them with my aquarium water . Hopefully they will continue on this path .
