Friday Farm Day

Good Morning/Afternoon/Evening All!

We are gathered here today for a little walk through my gardens to see what nature with a little help from me has brought forth! 

Let’s start with the storm damage, shall we? That means, the backyard.

The moringa is down. There’s no coming back for it now. Our soil is just too soft in the backyard since the flood. The roots are lifting the steps you see to the left.

Next up on our tour, the dragon fruit is really growing!

Remember our baby Key Limes? They’re full sized now!

I planted some more cucumbers since this year was a bust for them due to some ducks. They’re looking good so far!

The candy cane Zinnia is still giving us gorgeous blooms!

The Aji Dulce Peppers (Caribbean sweet snacking peppers) are fruiting

Look at the size of that loofah (that WAS in the moringa)

Look at how many Cuban peppers we have!

Moving to the front yard, look at how pretty the pink pentas look against the hot pink pentas!

Still getting Mulberries!

Finally, after the major part of Tropical Storm Debby passed, I took my happy butt out in the rain and planted a field of different colors of sunflowers. 😍

We will have the prettiest yard in the fall!

Thank you for joining me on this tour of our gardens!

Happy Friday Farm Day!

    It’s a shame about the moringa. What will you do with the fallen tree?
