more beets!

 don't they look yummy?

I finally pulled out the overwintered ones that were making stems. They shot out long scraggly arms like this,

with tiny yellow flowers on them crawling with ants and black bugs that look like aphids.

Not very attractive.

Thank you thank you! I'm blushing. I love taking the pictures! and it helps me remember what I did last year, though this year I've taken more pics than ever.

Glad to know some of it's been helpful! Ask me any questions you like.
