How My Garden Grows

Some exciting happenings in my garden! My very first tomato showed its face. These are plum tomato plants, a favorite of my for roasting. I look forward to a fruitful harvest.

Purple skin of my very first eggplant! Discovering this made me giddy.

My Brussels plant leaves are proving to be tasty for the neighborhood bugs. But look closely to the stalk and you’ll see the blurry beginnings of Brussels sprouts!

We put some stakes in to tie up the tomato plants in the back which have been invading the space of my red peppers. No sight of a pepper yet but the stem shot up quite nicely after many slow weeks.

This isn’t part of my garden per se, but the Sweet Pea bush is massive right now, and with many blossoms. They are like little orchids.

The Black-eyed Susan is hanging out with the Sweet Pea. It also helps show the scale of this massive bush. This picture   shows about 1/4 of its entirety.
