Garden Pictures for Hermit
Hermit asked for garden pictures a short while back. Now that the camera cord has been rescued from the children’s book tote I’m glad to oblige.
Green beans with the flowers as row markers instead of sticks. These are yellow Inca marigolds.
Purchased tomato plants. The Price Chopper buys from a local grower. From the tag these are Lemon Boys, low acid for the Davo who cannot eat acidic fruits.
The potato rows. Three main are plain, the odd 3/4 row is on the right, the stubby row in the upper left is the end of a tomato row. See that huge space between the last row and the one in the middle? I did not realize it was so large = wasted. Yesterday I planted about 10 squash craters & will finish the row in a week or so.
Yes these are older pictures, I’ll update soon.
Today we used our soaker hose for the first time. Also planted a row of cucumber craters: Sumter, Little Leaf (a University of Arkansas release that is a wonderful producer of pickling tomatoes), Marketmore, and one other pickler.
More planting tomorrow.



Man, that garden patch is looking pretty good! Hope it stays as healthy as it looks!
Good job, good post, and good pictures!
