growing!
New stuff to get happy about in the garden. One of my Bell Pepper plants has its first flower. The really exciting thing about this is it's one of the plants I grew from a seed out of a grocery-store pepper. Still not sure if it will make fruit, but a flower is a promising sign!
And we've begun picking Green Beans. Not many yet but Isa couldn't wait so she'll get to eat some with her dinner.
Yay peppers :D When I went crazy tearing up stuff from my garden, I was going to pull my peppers too because aside from the jalapeno, they're not doing too good. Haven't gotten ONE bell pepper yet!! But I just read that they're about to come in season again down here, so I'm just going to keep them in and see if they start producing.
ReplyDeleteAnd yay for beans :D I haven't given up on beans totally even though I pulled my plants. I'm going to try again in the fall. I just love the idea of growing beans!
I'm really excited about the peppers because last year I only got one plant (none of the other seeds grew) and this year I have a dozen! They're all bell peppers but next year I want to grow a jalapeno and a serrano pepper plant too.
ReplyDeleteThe beans were so tasty!
