I live in central Indiana zone 5. We lost a tree that shaded the patio in 2007, so I started planting in 2008 and never stopped. 2011 was my "year of annuals". This is likely to continue in 2012, along with the small vegetable garden. By the way, how do you grow BIG onions? In 2011, I put in my first raised bed. It is just 6'x6' but was great fun to watch through the growing season. It contains some bulbs and herbaceous perennials... if the annuals didn't shade them too much. Can't wait to see what it looks like in 2012. In 2010 I tried starting Lupinus, Baptisia and Clematis from seeds. I have a fantastic Blue Angel Hosta. In 2011 it had 39 eyes & a 6 feet wing span!
