Frugal Creativity: Garden Update

Thursday, July 30, 2009

The mystery plant looks more like a pepper plant to me now! (You were right all along!)

The rabbits are doing a number on the lilies. Last year they chewed up the marigolds, but this year they seem to be ignoring them.

Sorry for the blur (I used a different camera today), but we have some grape tomatoes ripening!

Your tomatoes are so pretty :) I'm glad you were able to figure out what that first plant it. Hopefully you'll have some peppers soon :)

There's nothing like fresh, home grown veggies, especially tomatoes. Those marigolds were really pretty, too! Thanks for stopping by my blog. I am following you on twitter! :)

Yum, tomatoes and peppers, good combination.

Rabbits are not supposed to like marigolds, so they should be safe. My rabbits missed the memo, so I have to occassionally douse them in garlic. Of course that leaves my backyard smelling like Gilroy, CA. We received several good rain storms, so I have to go back and recoat everything in rabbit reppellent to replace that which was washed off.

Everything's looking good, Melissa! :) I'm STILL canning green beans....I'm up to about 75 jars now. I hope to get about 25 more jars and then I'll call it quits. It takes a lot of beans to get us through the winter. :)
