End of the Season

Hi all,
Well back in June I was worried that we would end up with no tomatoes.  So far, I'm guessing we have picked over 500 or so tomatoes.  The season is drawing down, and we're giving a lot of thought of thought to cutting our plantings in half for next year. 

Our volunteer morning glories have been a nice surprise to wake up to everyday.

It's not over, still a few more to ripen!

Found the Tomatoes

Well, there was no need to fear we wouldn't have tomatoes this year.  They are back!  They must have been hiding deep within the branches, but we found them!!

Some volunteer Morning Glories growing with Tomatoes!

 

 

 

These are golden tomatoes, yum!

My favorite bush, Oleander,  is finally in bloom since my husband chopped if down to barely nothing.  But its back!

Where's my Tomatoes?

O.K. it's almost mid July and hardly any tomatoes.  Check out the plant --- it's almost as high as the roof, but only two tomatoes on this plant and they are green and the size of golf balls.  What's the matter?

Bloodshot Iris

Just finished my latest watercolor.  Not sure whether I should outline flowers, leaves, etc.  Whata ya think?  Picture is not as sharp as it could be -- something wrong with the flash on my camera.  Check it out anyway.

Iris

My good neighbor Ron was nice enough to give me some iris to plant last year, or was it the year before.  Anyway, they have multiplied and multiplied.   I'm going to separate them in a few months.  They are just getting too much.   Here are some pics, also put some that are growing in his yard too.
Take a look.

Virginia Irene Easter Outfit

Virginia Irene got a new Easter Outfit from her Auntie Natti.   It's not the dress she was hoping for, but beggars can't be choosers.  If we could only find somebody to give her a new diaper.  The one she has on is over ten years old!!! (not good)
