I must apologize to “Sophia”, one of my fellow belly dancer/gardening friends. She bestowed upon me a few free tomato and pepper plants…and I killed two of the tomato plants. It wasn’t entirely my fault – they were pretty gangly when I got them planted, and two bad storms back-to-back last week got the best of them. One was snapped in half and the other just lying limp on it’s side. I pulled the snapped-off one, but left the other, propping it up against the trellis – maybe it’ll recover. If not, I’m sure I’ll be OK, harvest-wise. I mourned my lost plants by buying two more at the farmer’s market! J I brought home a lovely Caspian Pink and a Garden Peach…and Lilac bell pepper. The poor pepper had to go in the far end of the garden, as the pepper patch is at capacity. Eh, oh well. J
The heavy rains also displaced a good portion of my mulch…I bought another 4 bags to be on the safe side. My only garden victory this weekend – walking out of the garden supply store without buying yet another plant! J
