Well we got about a foot of rain Tuesday night, so the garden is "well watered" now. And we've got lots of stuff starting to ripen! Check this out
|
Habanero plants are loaded! |
|
Lots of jalepenos starting to get large |
|
We have already picked plenty of red ripe and delish tomatoes! These green ones are huge. |
|
Yes this basil plant is waist high! And those are roma tomatoes growing next to it. Can you say salsa? |
We've also got plenty of muscadines that are actually starting to ripen and get larger. We've got our first canteloupe on the vine now! it's still tiny and I don't even have a picture yet. but it's cool. And all of these tomatoes. wow. The roma's are at least twice as big as anything you can find in a store, and have 10 times as much flavor! they are ripening quickly and we're going to be overrun with salsa and marinara sauce soon. We've got a few vines of yellow salad tomatoes growing too, and we're picking those by the dozen practically. But the big fellas are taking their time turning red.
Happy gardening!

Looks great. I have been picking all the cherry tomatoes off my parents plants and popping them directly in mouth. I am such a helpful gardener;)
I've said it before and I will say it again - I am so envious of your garden! I eat tomatoes like an apple so would love to have an ample supply of them. Instead I eat the crappy grocery store ones. Mwah. But at least my basil plant is doing well!
I love your garden!
I love your garden!
