Right plant, right place is important in all gardening, but this is especially true with vegetables. In our Pacific Northwest climate it's even more important. We don't have the sun and heat like other parts of the country so it's very important to place your plants where they get the most heat. It's also important to select plant varieties that do well in this climate. All tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, and eggplant are not created equal. Learn how to select the best varieties and the best place in your garden to have an optimal crop later in the year.
