Seeds of Change

Some new friends are on their way. I don’t know what they are but I am excited to meet them.

Citrus in Bloom

Once again our key lime in is bloom (fewer blooms).

For the first time we are seeing our grapefruit tree in bloom.

Caterpillars

The caterpillars are back and have attacked every tomato on my only tomato bush. Finally got around to spraying the BT this week. It always makes me a little sad to spray anything on my plants, even if it is “environmentally friendly”. I really need to spend some more time working on companion planting.

Love the Beet

More beet love. The beets look good. The bulbs are small but the beet greens look fantastic. I can’t wait to throw these in a salad or saute them.

Protecting Berries

Some lovely blueberry flowers are forming.
Last year the fruit was terrorized by birds. I came across some netting at a big box store.The netting was placed around the three berry bushes to protect from the birds.
