How Does Your Garden Grow?

 

Feels like 100. Not as hot as some areas of the country, but very hot for New England.

  1. Your garden is doing SO much better than mine. I finally have little white flowers on my bell peppers, so may get one pepper before the frost. Your zucchini is amazing. Your peace lilies are taking over your home (grin). And you said you didn't have a green thumb!

    1. Peace lilies are easy to care for so even I can manage. They don't like a lot of water so if you forget to water, the leaves droops. I brought a plant when we visited Himself's niece in her new home.

    1. That's so sad about your gardens. The tomatoes pictured are called Midnight Snacking Tomato. They start out black and then turn a reddish/black when they ripen. They taste like a cherry tomato. He has other tomato varieties, cherry tomatoes, and some sort of slicing tomato. Maybe a Big Girl, but those tomatoes are still very green.
