memorial day



Thankful today and everyday for those who served to make our lives better.  Here are a few pictures from the garden this weekend.  This is my first plumeria that has ever bloomed!!  I have had it for about 3 years and I always thought it had a yellow flower, but it is actually a beautiful pink and yellow color.  It is still in a pot at this point, but will be in the ground soon, I should of planted it two years ago!!
The first black beauty eggplant is ready to eat.  The two eggplant's (black beauty and ichiban) have done really well to date.
My second cucumber, which is two more than I got last year!!  I am not sure on the variety of this one, it was a freebie from work.  
The sungold's are still going strong, despite fighting blight.  Still setting a few tomatoes, not a lot, temps are getting warm fast.
Hello Summer - the first okra of the season!! Lee variety.
Tatume (calabacita) squash that was a dollar at the nursery two weeks ago - I couldn't resist.
Rambling red stripe tomato that was free at the nursery, it does have a few flowers, hopefully, the temps will cooperate, so it will set a few tomatoes.  I am such a sucker for different varieties of tomato plants.

Temps today in STX are 86/76.
