The boy and I planted them a couple weeks ago, and so far so good!! The zucchini plant doesn't seem to be growing a whole lot but it does have blossoms on it, so I take that as a good sign. The strawberry plant is doing pretty amazing! I'd say we've gotten at least eight strawberries off it so far! Considering most things I try to grow end up dead not long after I plant them, I think eight strawberries is pretty spectacular.
Here are some pics of our patio garden...
The plant! See how it's thriving? (Never mind the size of it when I bought it...you don't need to know everything...)

awesome! i started my first real garden this year and my goal was to get one thing i could eat from it. you met my goal!
That's fantastic! There are a few finicky plants out there, but for the most part they WANT to grow! Just give them water, light, and warmth :)
I think it's great the kiddos are involved, too. It's fun learning how things grow, especially things we eat.
