You are in good company.

When you add all those plants to my Chihuaua, my cat, and my two rabbits, you've got one heck of a mess.

Outside I have 1 apple tree, 3 peach trees, 2 brown turkey figs, 1 Chicago Hardy fig, 2 mystery blueberries, 2 pomegranates, 8 pawpaw's, 1 pecan, and 1 mulberry. In the garden I presently have corn, carrots, collard, lettuce, strawberries, tomatoes, sunflowers, bell peppers, asparagus, green beans, zucchini, onions, yellow squash, butternut squash, spaghetti squash, watermelon, canteloupe, cucumbers, pie pumpkins, and halloween pumpkins. In my herb garden I have thyme, rosemary, sage, basil, cilantro, and oregano. I think that covers it all. It's like an addiction: I just need to plant something all the time.
Me too!!! I quess I never outgrew playing in dirt. Besides bananas, figs& tangelo, I have several adenium grown from seed now flowering after four years of waiting. Patience is the key. Three ponytail palm, triangle palm &Yucca trees. Too many others to mention. Under lights I have in the basement eggplant, tomatoes of a few different types, cubanell peppers & cucumbers. I have a sudden urge to go next door & get some cuttings from my neighbor's plum tree. I did this for a relative of his once and it worked. He said help myself so I think I will. Harmless addictions are so much fun!
