Update on our deck garden

Wednesday, June 29th, 2011

Our tomatoes have really taken off. I hung netting behind them and am tying the plants on so that as the tomatoes set, it the netting can support the weight and we won’t have a catastrophe in a storm. The hydroponic planter is having a second crop – now eggplant, cukes, zucchini and beans.

What a Difference some Warm Weather Makes!

The paving of our road is complete.

It’s such a pleasure to be on a paved road.  The road is one way now and we have to go around the block every time we leave, but it’s  fun to see the neighbors.  The garden seems to change over night.

Summer has started!

Since Memorial Day, the weather has been wonderful: clear sunny days and cool crisp nights. It’s perfect for my garden. The path to the beach is like a walk through wonderland

 

The fuchsia at the front door just love the shade.
