I picked some cherry tomatoes, tied up more of the cucumbers and a stem or two of tomatoes. My husband was weed whacking in back of the barn and...
Happy Saturday! We had 1/2" of rain overnight, so I won't be hauling water this morning. I'll check the tomatoes to see if any are pickable, and...
Seeing the weather forecast for South Florida, I do hope you are safe and the heavy rain and winds avoid you. Let us know how you are, please.
Australians are just British Texans. (I love this!)
That certainly looks like one. I haven't seen one either, but here is a link that shows a photo:...
Mike, I sincerely hope that "blur" is nothing but a mistake. Please keep us updated on your health. We care.
June has started off well for us--rain! We didn't expect it, rain wasn't predicted until tomorrow, but we got 1/4" of much appreciated moisture...
Our vitex trees are beginning to bloom. We have two blues and one white. The white was bred by Texas A&M, and being a hybrid, we feared we lost it...

[ATTACH] Here is a photo of the trellises we use for the tomatoes. This was taken before we started tying up the tomatoes, so the trellis shows...
Dirtmechanic, we install our tomato and cucumber trellises before planting, then plant on either side of the trellis in a zig-zag pattern. It...
We are back to watering, again! I watered the tomatoes, cucumbers and peppers. While lugging buckets I found a few tomatoes that will be...
All the captions were good, but Jerry, yours was tops!
Zigs, good luck on winning any prize the cactus show has. Everyone here on the Stew can attest to the lovely cacti you grow, and the beautiful blooms.
Melody, here we plant tomatoes closer together than advised, because the foliage keeps the roots cooler during our really hot weather. We don't...
Tetters, we share a love (passion, obsession) for roses. Here in Texas the own root roses do better. Hybrids are short lived, perhaps two seasons....
Welcome! Like Tetters, I had to look up Eldoret. You've found a very helpful gardening site, filled with nice people. You'll enjoy being here, and...
