A storm came through and knocked a bunch of glads over, with the result that I get to enjoy a whole passle of them! I'm stingy with my flowers...heh. I don't know why, but I just never would have thought to pick this many to bring indoors.
Echinacea with wierd looking fly.
Single petaled poppy above, and cleome below. They say the latter spreads like crazy. I guess I'll find out soon, as I'm just enjoying it right now!
The purple cabbage didn't seem to get cabbage worms as bad...but then, it's taking longer to head up than the others.
My brussel sprouts are starting to form little sprouts at the base of the leaves! I'm so excited...this is one of dh's favorite veggies.
And looky looky...my first okra bloom. I planted marigolds in between some of them, and those seem stunted. I'm wondering if they just don't like each other, or it's just a competition for nutrients?
I bought 2 heirloom varieties of toms. The beefsteak, below, has had a major problem with splitting. I think it's better now that I'm making sure they get water more regularly.
The romas are loaded...
I think these are Brandywine...
Didn't expect the squash to make it...they got a late start. Glad I was wrong.
