Tip toe thru my tulips - and more '08
Sheriff Roland:
Awright, now to some of the plants.
As I claimed in "At this point in the road" last week, the veggies are promissing a bumper crop.
Here's a (poor) view of only the bottom of a few (I've got 24 plants this year) of the tomato plants.
it was dark - caise of the impending storm - & the flash went off.
Now if only they'd turn red. Only one month left ...
Sheriff Roland:
Four of those 24 plants are cherry tomatoes (and another two gigantic - as in about 5 feet tall - heritage yellow pear-shaped small tomatoes)
Here are the ground cherry tomato plants.
Sheriff Roland:
Now the apple tree's not the biggest, and when it was younger, I thought the fruit not sweet enough, but last year's small crop had me smiling.
This year, this still small tree is producing prodigiously
I should be able to pick em in a couple a weeks(or 3)
Sheriff Roland:
Hers another view of the apple tree
and yes, it's just ONE tree
Sheriff Roland:
The pear tree's about a quarter (or less) the size of the apple tree, and I'm concerned about how the weight of the fruit if making the tree grow crooked, but I don't want to prune this tree, cause it's fruit has always been Sooo sweet.
can you say bumper crop?
