So Far 2013 is a Great Gardening Season!

2011 was an unusually wet year. 2012 was an unusually dry year. We therefore surmise that 2013 will be "normal" and so far this has been the pattern, meaning that we have been able to plant pretty much on time...so far...here are a few pics:

  1. Always enjoy your blog. I sure hope this is a normal weather/garden year.

    The ninth picture down -- a pepper with a "fringed" leaf? Never in my life have I seen such a a thing. What the heck is it??

    1. Hilarious! I think a couple of pots of cardinal climber got mixed in with our pepper flat. Too bad it's not a fringed pepper! :)

  2. Hey guys! Everything is beautiful over there! So nice to see the start of gardening season...alas I am a gardener without a garden right now. We're (cross your fingers, please!) in the process of buying a house, but not closing until the end of the month, if it works out this time. So, can't plant here and can't plant there yet...frustrating! Your's is just lovely, as always, can't wait to see more pics as things progress. ~Vonnie
