Little yellow rose is still hanging on, I don't know if its going to make it another year...












Here is a new rose, smells wonderful and the colour is very nice, I don't want to plant this guy until he is done flowering.


















Some lilies from our flower bed out front, I missed out on bringing them in last year; a mistake I won't make again. They have an intoxicating aroma and I have one bunch in the living room and another in Lacy's room.








Three pots of the venus flytrap stayed inside in their terraruim while another smaller pot went outside to join my two pitcher plants. We are going to have quite the carnivorous bog, but that is a plan for another day.










Here are the three bromeliad pups with the venus flytrap in the background and some african violets. All the indoor plants are doing very well.











I just picked up this hydrangea at Trader Joe's its not too big right now but hopefully will be a ten foot bush eventually. When he came home he was a light blue colour but with the acidity of the mulch, added coffee grounds, and planting him near an evergreen bush its turning a very nice shade of violet.






The climbing lily starts out with the yellow framing around the red petals and then they mature to a deep bright red without any yellow at all. They are gorgeous! But not 6' tall :(










This is one of the free tomatoes from SSCC. I believe this one is for making paste.

















Yay more zucchinis! The zucchini plant is huge this year.












We now have beans, this one here is a yellow wax bean. Pretty tasty!


















and some purple bush beans again this year - they are so pretty!
















The grapes on the fence are doing really well too, Lacy is excited to eat them!

















Look! The cabbage is finally starting to get a head on it. The spider living in the middle must be doing it's job to keep the cabbage moth larvae away.











These are some type of giant 'crazy' squash that I got from Jarett's (the NGP) mom. We're not sure what type they are but apparently they are large and have green flesh. The leaves are easily twice the size of the other squash.
















Our potatoes are growing really fast! As soon as they get another 4" tall or so we will add more dirt and unroll the bags a bit. We think this will be in about 2 more days. We are thinking of building a frame around the bags so that they don't fall over when fully unrolled and so that we can add another bag on top if they keep growing up. We might have a LOT of potatoes this winter!














This is another tomato bed it hasn't filled out entirely yet, it's 6 free tomatoes from SSCC and the front row I grew from seed.







The raised beds look awesome!












These are some of the peppers from SSCC, that we got for free to add to our container garden.













Our container pepper garden including the banana and bell peppers that I grew from seed. I have planted a few peppers in the ground just for comparison and its nice to know that my instincts were right, they are doing much better in the containers.














See the size of those tomato plants? Some of them are up to our waists. They all have flowers but none of the ones grown from seeds have fruits, yet.
