Walking down Charles St the other day with a co-worker and stumbled across this:

Interesting...
So its our third summer in our house, and for the third time - I've planted a vegetable garden. Its a funny thing, each year I've had wildly different results. As a general rule, 70% of what I plant will grow and yield something, the other 30% will have succumb to some sort of problem or just *not* grow. The weird thing is that out of the 70% of things that actually grow, every year I'll have one or two things that do exceptionally well (sometimes to the detriment of the stuff planted around them).
