I hit the blog post picture limit again. Damnit.
Earlier this week the first morning glory flower opened. I love it!
Here's the vine as of today, running off to explore my upstairs neighbor's balcony:
It's been a great week in the garden.
Four Morning glories this morning:
And check out the crazy moonflower bud that will open soon:
Another angle showing of the strawberries' prison break:
The current extent of the tomato jungle:
Clusters of growing tomatoes:
Some of the making of tonight's tomato/basil/mozzerella sald:
I have my first ripening pepper!
Remember what the Experimental tomato looked like just three weeks ago? Look at it now:
Finally, the roses are blooming again! Something like 10 buds all over the plants:
So I was lame and skipped last weeks garden pics, but honestly, the summer has already peaked, and the garden isn't changing much.
The big tomato is still lush and huge. We picked a huge bowl of tomatoes for a salad this afternoon.
The experimental tomato has also turned into a jungle. tomato production has slowed down since the weather cooled off, so I'm hoping at least some of those flowers become tomatoes before the frost comes. I'll be happy to make a big pile of fried green cherry tomatoes when the time comes, but I want more tomatoes!
Still trying to figure out what to do with all the habaneros
The Christmas cactus leaf isn't showing any sprouts, but it isn't whithering either. (I guess it's been 3 weeks since I planted it)
The jade leaves, however, shrivelled up to nothing. Pout. I need to pick something else for that pot.
I've signed up to fund two different loans so far (I'm sure I'll add more over time) I love the concept, and I'm enjoying being involved in the whole micro-loan thing.

I am looking forward to watching these business prosper. And I can't wait to see how far they expand into more countries.
