A half-moon shaped garden built around a swing in our yard. Last year this bed turned into being mostly ornamental, but we did succeed with some chamomile, and our main crop of snow peas grew up on trellises next to the swing.

In 2014, I want to do a bit more flowering edibles (like the chamomile) and possibly replace the juvenile artichoke plants we lost to a recent (and unusual for our area) deep freeze.

Experimental: this feature is new and might be flaky. These dates are estimates from 25 km weather-model data, not readings from a station at your garden, so a cold spot can be colder. They may be wrong, so check your national weather service and ask local growers before relying on them.
