Snapdragons from the garden
Well, it’s been raining heavily for the last two days. Most of my flowers were washed out or flopped over. I cut of a bunch of snapdragons to make bouquet and try and remove the tangle of a mess from the yard. My tomatoes are doing well and my green bell peppers are starting to flower. I bought a bell pepper for 0.59 cents this morning. It would be nice to be able to get free peppers and tomatoes from the yard. As for the strawberries, i am tempted to just remove them next year. The birds get to them before I do and it’s getting very invasive in my vegetable patch. I’ll have a few more months to think about it before having to remove them. As for the Hilshiem raspberries, they are doing fine. A little small right now but I think they’ll flourish next year.
