Very nice photo, Tony. Some people throw out "nice" comments without much thought but I am pickier than most and think you did a great job here. Was it with your cheap Kodak? What variety is this?

Thanks for the thanks. You're becoming a nice guy.

BTW, the photo is very nice but all of the emoticons are distracting! :P

This is my first year of growing cape gooseberry, Physallis peruviana. I've had a tough time with a potato beetle attacking them even though I've never noticed this pest previously. It seems to be a magnet for the insect. This is not my photo but I believe it's the same insect: Three-Lined Potato Beetle, Lema daturaphila 2 | Flickr - Photo Sharing! Pyrethrin kills them but more come after those are gone.

Today I noticed a my first flowers opening on two of my 16 plants:

I think that is the 'Parrot's Beak' heliconia. The 'Lobster Claw' is generally an orange shade (like a cooked lobster), with a dark green to black edge, and no yellow. Another difference, 'Parrot's Beak' hangs down, 'Lobster Claw' grows upward. Still nice pics, though.

(yeah, I know if you 'google' it, it shows the 'Parrots Beak' even when you look for 'Lobster Claw', that doesn't mean it's right)

It has been over year for this guy! Very small bloom, but I have a big patch out back I am hoping to see go crazy soon.

Here are a couple of nasturtiums that add a little color to the garden.
