Due to some requests for photos of my garden, I would suggest looking
here,
here,
here, and
here.
I don't have any idea of the square footage of my garden, but it ain't big. We live on less than 1/5th of an acre, and only a tiny portion is usable. When we moved in, there were many ornamental plans, that I promptly pulled out and replaced with edibles. A friend was recently visiting, and when she saw my "garden" area, she said "wow, it looks so much bigger on your blog". So it's tiny, pretty tiny.
