Re: What is blooming in your garden today (other plants)?

Have you tried it freezing fresh chunks? Works for me.

Re: What is blooming in your garden today (other plants)?

I also tend to grow things I don't eat. I have pineapples, bananas, figs (again--why?) and citrus. I love tomatoes and standard fruits/veggies but they're fairly plebeian plants that anyone can grow...

Re: What is blooming in your garden today (other plants)?

See? I haven't a clue how to grow anything in this new frontier! I have potatoes in my west "shade" bed (maybe 2 hours of dappled light). They're happily spudding along even though it's dry and I...

Re: What is blooming in your garden today (other plants)?

The only spot I have all day sun is possibly by my mailbox. My lot runs east to west and I have big trees in front and back. Up north I'd never try to garden with that much shade but here lemons,...

Re: What is blooming in your garden today (other plants)?

Those are beautiful! I have no desire to grow more plants which produce fruit I dislike but the flowers are spectacular. Hoping they're not all boys....

Ponderosa lemon and limequat. Both were purchased in December as was the Sunrise blueberry; all have fruit on them! I love this instant gratification FL gardening.

Re: What is blooming in your garden today (other plants)?

I just noticed that 5 of the beans I planted 3/9 are blooming! (I've replanted 3x due to awful germination; these are the 1st bunch.) This is a very fast bush bean but I often don't harvest within...

Re: What is blooming in your garden today (other plants)?

More parasitic at this point and I'm not top dog. Lived through worse and survived. Looking forward to speaking my mind when the time is right. ;)

Re: What is blooming in your garden today (other plants)?

Okay, I will but my computer got "crunched" by my host so I'm borrowing his lesser one that I repaired 2x after he crunched it then blamed me. (I really suck at relationships and, fingers crossed...

Re: What is blooming in your garden today (other plants)?

I have 4 reds and a peach lantern hibiscus (the latter, which I really love, is finally getting a new leaf!) while one of the little reds is sporting a bloom. Up north I raised the hearty kind which...

Re: What is blooming in your garden today (other plants)?

Before you laugh at my picture know that my tomatoes planted in May (afternoon shade) withered and died without ever spitting out a single flower. They just wilted and croaked. Yes, I know how to...

Re: What is blooming in your garden today (other plants)?

Are you ever going to offer seeds from your ladies? Not that I can afford them and have no place yet to grow them but at some point my issues will be resolved...better be soon...I keep being gifted...

Re: What is blooming in your garden today (other plants)?

I also belong but this place moves a bit more. I've learned a lot reading there. If and when I purchase more than my little pink lemon, I expect I'll be there more than I am now.

Re: What is blooming in your garden today (other plants)?

I'd seen that video; I suspect, as he admits, that's the exception and not the norm but I love success stories!

If it's not okay to post this, someone will remove it. There is a citrus forum; it's...

Re: What is blooming in your garden today (other plants)?

Shhhhh...don't tell anyone but I have about 50 grocery store lemon seedlings in a pot that I grew just to see if I could grow anything here; I doubt they'll ever produce fruit but this small victory...

Re: What is blooming in your garden today (other plants)?

Apparently I have not lost my ability to grow something. My pink lemon is blooming! She's only 1.5' tall and inside (I was not about to chance losing her so I'm going to have to play bee) but she's...

Do Cosmos behave like perennials in your climate? I love the pinks best because my mother did.

Re: What is blooming in your garden today (other plants)?

Fingers crossed all plants will be in 10" or higher pots by Wednesday night. Then we'll see how they do. (I can't believe I haven't eaten a real tomato in over a year!) I do know that nothing in a 5"...

Re: What is blooming in your garden today (other plants)?

Re: What is blooming in your garden today (other plants)?

I think I need those buckets from the bakery filled with decent dirt (working on that) to grow veggies. (Banana is quite happy.) It was not the heat that killed my plants--it's bugs that live in the...

Re: What is blooming in your garden today (other plants)?

Yeah, well tomatoes grow anywhere--they're weeds. Got any here? Nope. I'll figure it out and make it work but FL is not the land of milk and honey. Trust me on this.
