Peppers Planted April 22

 

All peppers came from

"Pepper Joe" Arditi

Most of the plants are here, along with ferns and spider plants.

Peppers are Early Jalapeno, Long Red Slim, Sweet Crimson, Hot Banana, Serrano and Ancho/Poblano

 

 

 

   

The signs were made on the puter using PJ's illustrations.

Coffee cans are mostly for sprouting, but smaller pepper plants may live

there, at least for the first year. Trading/gifting will be done with Michelle

and Delpha, maybe others. Depends on how many keepers we get.

 

SPROUTAGE!

May 6

 

Long Red Slim and Sweet Crimson are first to appear.

 

 

 

Thomas' Asparagus

We picked up the crowns from Lowe's in the middle of April. They look

like something you'd see in a Harry Potter class! Anyway, this spear

appeared on May 5. Isn't it cute? Probably about 2" high, so we may

have missed it a few days ago?

Progress

 

 

 
Only one marigold so far. Planted to help keep bugs away.

The first asparagus shoot

is branching out and the second one has appeared. There are male and female plants, but I have no idea which is which and who these may be.

 

 

These are Sweet Crimson peppers. Seeing signs of life from Serranos

and a couple of Early Jalapenos too. Only 2 pots left with no sprouts.

Life Interrupted

 

 I fell and broke my ankle! 10 days later I had surgery, then we, and the garden,

moved to our new place. We're in a very nice mobile home park that they all seem to love.

These pictures are from mid-June to mid-August, when I was brave enough to hobble around

and do some watering and harvesting.

Harvest!

 

 

I'm in the robo-boot and finally able to move around a little

 

         

A great place to buy pepper and tomato seeds!
