This Summer has kept me quite busy.
27 ft of flowers.
these are the Mello at the end.
That is hubby in behind the tomato..see how big it is. ONE plant!!
Last summer we built raised flower beds for the front walkway. We filled them with cut grass all summer last year, and into the fall. then left them sit uncovered all winter.
this is what they looked like at the beginning of spring.
This spring I planted a hand full of marigold seed and a few Zinnias in the longest one. They grew...and grew....and GREW!!
one of the smaller boxes has Love Lies Bleeding,
and the last started out with Mello in one corner and i was going to wait to see what else I wanted to put in it. then, a volunteer tomato plant showed up.
these are the Mello at the end.
We decided to let it grow to see what happened. It got HUGE. we have counted over 50 tomatoes!!
That is hubby in behind the tomato..see how big it is. ONE plant!!
about the same time the tomato showed up 3 tiny vines showed up in the flower beds, so I moved them to the end of the box that has the Tomato. we thought they were cucumber, but they are not., they are a cantaloupe!! We have lots of baby cantaloupe.
this is what they look like today
This is one of the baby cantaloupe. It is starting to get the typical ridges cantaloupe are known for.
so now you know what I am doing.
trying to crochet some too, but seem to have lost the creative ability. most days i just pick up the yarn and put it right back down again.
