Fall Happenings



This is my largest tomato! I'm pretty sure I got the tags mixed up somehow and this Pineapple! It's got a great taste! Definitely will be growing this again! It's so pretty too!


The bottom of the tomato.


The inside! See how pretty it is?


I think this is my Japanese Kobacha squash....not sure? Will have to look at my seed packets, but it is getting big! 


My little watermelon! It's gotten big, but it isn't ripe yet still! *sigh*


Found a baby pumpkin growing! 


Another small pumpkin growing on the tomato cage! This one is bigger than the last. 


My beautiful kale! <3 p="">

Dahlia 'Potluck'. Not very impressed by this strain...less colorful than I expected! 


My milkweed finally bloomed! 


Seven spikes!!! This is the second time this Pleurothallis convallium 'D&M' has bloomed for me and I only got it this past May! 


This little Masdavallia Peachie must be happy with me as it threw out a spike!


Papillio in full bloom


Garlic 'Music' all squeaky clean and ready to be eaten/planted! Most of it will be planted as I did not get nearly enough to get much to be eaten this year unfortunately! :(

Rain = Growth!



So my volunteer tomato is growing a bit oblong...?


Forget the type of bean this is, but it is finally blooming! So pretty!


The other beans are flowering too! Beans are growing too! 


Red Currant tomatoes are growing like crazy! The plant is over the stakes already!


Got these row stakes on sale at Target for a little over $3! They were originally $12.99!


These are sprouted! Not sure if it is a pumpkin or watermelon...

The Harvest Has Begun!



Another Patio Tomato harvested! Just got my first ripe Black Prince tomato too!


Had a volunteer tomato sprout in one of my large pots at the old house! Thought I needed that pot so I transplanted it into this smaller pot. Finally moved it to the new house to see what it is! Probably a cherry tomato of some sort as they seem the most prolific! 


I forget where I planted what, but I know I planted watermelon and pumpkin seeds here so we'll just have to wait and see what it is that really sprouted!


Check out our grapes! Not sure what kind they are or when they might be ready. 


Some of my plants that I dug up from the old house. The one that is quite brown is an Itoh Peony that went into shock. I'm hoping it recovers...


I totally forgot to harvest my garlic! Went to the old house, saw them and finally thought to myself "Hey! It's past the 4th of July!" Doh! So I dug them up! Some of the ones in the shade didn't look ready yet. At most, they had only one to two brown leaves. I'll give it another few days.
