got the lattice and shelves in place today to hold my little container garden, which has beans, tomatoes, basil, fennel, sweet peas, rudbeckia, bells of ireland, poor man’s orchid, and several varieties of snapdragons, cosmos, and zinnias.
I’m going to start some perennial seeds and I know they will need to go into larger pots as they get older. Is there any reason not to just start with larger pots instead of cell trays?
I need to cover my blueberries with something so the birds won’t eat them. Should I build a little arch and cover it with netting or just bag the branches with fruit?
Yesterday’s harvest. The broccoli is so much more farty smelling than store broccoli, it’s stunning. I knew garden tomatoes were way better but low key expected my broccoli to be essentially the same but no, way more veggieful.
The little black berries in the tub are wonderberries. Very seedy, nondescriptly sweet. Not worth growing again but fun to have a bunch of berries as opposed to my hard won single strawberry (strawberry total is now 4 from 10 plants lol)
Definitely sounds like ornamental plum… Maybe some have leaves more similar to peach? Plums and peaches are both Prunus sp. (wild and ornamental also)…
