We all have our favorite flowers that, despite not being perennials, we plant in our gardens every year. The number one flower that I plant each year is petunias.

Body
I always try to grow a new fruit or vegetable in my garden every year. This year, I am experimenting with a family favorite — strawberries. I love strawberries, and our family makes a trip just about every July to harvest fresh strawberries in the sweltering heat. However, I haven’t tried growing them at home.
