So much growth in just two months! I took these pictures on the 18th. Here's Alice standing under the tomato plants:
See all the yellow flowers in the middle of the picture below? We're gonna have a lotta cucumbers.
...Which, by the way, taste amazing. We have several varieties of tomato, snow peas, pod peas, green beans, cucumbers, carrots, beets, several kinds of lettuce, several kinds of hot peppers, green and red bell peppers, eggplant, zucchini, and five or six different herbs. All this makes cooking so much more rewarding.
Wow. That's a pretty amazing garden. If you eat all of those veggies, you're going to be very healthy. But - no fruit? I'd like to try to grow blueberries, raspberries and blackberries. Am a berry freak.
ReplyDeleteThanks! Fruit would be great, but it just takes longer - berries mostly grow on bushes. With thorns. What I would love to have at my house is a lime tree and some grapevines.
ReplyDeleteIncidentally, if you're ever in southwestern Michigan, there are several pick-it-yourself blueberry farms along I-94. You can get super fresh fruit for a couple bucks a quart.
