Backyard Garden

Both photos were taken from under the metal upstairs porch. It's not porous so makes for great storage space. The back wall is on the north-northeast side. The first photo also captures the east-southeast wall. An unfortunate pair of messy mulberry trees drape over from the neighboring yard. The second photo shows the west-northwest wall with holly branches engulfing the back corner.
The approximate arrangement of tomatoes, green peppers, a lone eggplant, and herbs are in the foreground. It happens to be the sunniest spot because of the aforementioned mulberries.
