I have nothing but doubts about my ability to grow any kind of edible thing. Usually what happens is I spend hundreds of dollars and months painstakingly keeping things watered in the 100° heat with high, hot, drying winds, only to be rewarded with like two cucumbers or okra pods or whatever it is. Forget even trying to grow anything but grape tomatoes in Central Texas, even if it's in a raised bed with perfect soil. Meanwhile my flowers and flowering vines and foliage plants that I use in floral arrangements do great, re-seeding themselves and thriving all over the property.
