The garden is producing!
It's amazing what regular care and watering can do for a garden, not to mention a stretch of warm, sunny weather. This week the garden has exploded into productivity.
Garden Envy ! Everything is so lush and green. Even though I water my tomatoes, they are in big pots, everyday and they are under sun screen the look wilted all the time. On Tuesday we tied the record at 39 consecutive days over 100. We are now having a few days just below 100 woohoo ! I have always said how much I love your beautiful garden.
Oh my goodness, that heat you've been enduring is brutal. Glad to hear it's cooling off a bit. Funny, you have tomato envy and I have cactus envy. We always want what we don't have!
My tomatoes are done for now I have picked the rest (they kinda cook on the vine if you don't pick them) and will wait for the second crop to start after the really hot weather has stopped. I do live in a green desert but your garden is just Lush !
