Woo Hoo! That cool air met me this morning when I opened the back door. It almost feels like FALL around here!
So… in honor of FALL, I thought I’d share with you some new pictures of the fall garden. So without further ado…
The tomatoes are growing well. They are well over 2 feet tall already and all looking healthy.
Another view of the tomatoes:
As I think I mentioned before, I am growing two plants each of several different varieties of new-to-me heirloom tomatoes. I’m trying to see which ones I like and grow well.
Here we have some squash, both yellow crookneck & zucchini, along with that large clump of radishes in the middle to help keep pests away, and a small row of borage at the top of the screen there before you reach the garden edge:
Also, we have some Roma Bush Beans:
And plenty of herbs. The basil has exploded… look at all the baby basil!
And here are some turnip seeds I planted this past weekend. Can you believe these tiny things grow into big turnips? Well, at least I hope they will!
Other things planted but not shown:
Broccoli
Green Leaf Lettuce
Red Leaf Lettuce
Brussels Sprouts
Jalapenos ~ still left over from Spring and producing like crazy
Marigolds
Edamame
Red Potatoes (in a pot)
And not yet planted — beets. I’ll plant them a little later.
So far, so good, with no major issues. Let’s hope things stay that way! :)
