Here is a late batch of pics from the end of June. First up: D*'s new flower arrangement custom selected and planting directed by him. He selected the plants at the local Home Depot and told me where to plant them. He's not a dirty hands kind of guy.
The nicotiana has begun to bloom and they are beautiful. By far my favourite plants right now. They are very fragrant ans have helped to attract bees to pollinate the tomatoes.
More nicotiana. Lovely flowers.
Here is the happy looking East Bunch. They are getting lots of sun and growing fast now.
Looking down the patio past the east bunch to the west bunch. In the foreground is my bomeliad that Jason and Shannon gave me for a house warming.
West Bunch below looking down the patio to the East Bunch.
Mesclun Mix from Vesey's is still doing well. We have just noticed some aphids andwill be treating with Safer's Insecticidal Soap.
Here are the super-tall daisy's my Mom gave us (background), they are doing well but seem to attract and harbour a lot of insects. In the foreground are the new pink boots D* picked up at Home Depot a few weeks ago. They are quite cute.
Oregano, tomtoes and beans doing well.
Frontal view of West Bunch - they get a bit less sun than East Bunch and as such are a bit smaller.
That's got us up to date to June 26, 2009. As I type its July 3 and I've already got another update to do!
