Floyd's Garden





lets be honest. i can't take one tineentsy bit of credit for this one. Floyd has done it all. we've had some triumphs and some defeats, like any amateur, hobbyist gardeners I'm sure.

the highlights?
1. real, live, broccoli! So cool - I didn't know it would grow in SC.
2. lettuce has survived - it hasn't flourished like crazy, but it's still green.
4. big ol' banana pepper and some other peppers ripening up
5. the tomato harvest is going to be bonkers.
6. fresh herbs. mmm.

the lowlights?
1. bird or chipmunk destroying said broccoli plants. Broccoli floret blooming before we cut it, thereby ruining our opportunity to consume it.
2. friend-to-remain-nameless STEALING big ol' banana pepper and unripe chili pepper.
3. rocky clay soil... probably hampering our real "Eden" opportunities, but we're okay with that.

Kudos Floyd!
