Purple Cabbage Seedlings, Carrots and Mustard Greens

I've seen the mustard green seedlings for a few days, but today I noticed the cabbages and carrots are starting to grow.

Here you can see a mustard green seedling and behind it are lots of carrot seedlings.

It's a bit blurry, but here's one of the baby cabbages!

Just for fun, I thought I'd share the pineapple plant I grew from a fruit. I planted this about six months ago, I think.

2023 Spring Revival

We moved to the suburbs in a neighboring town in 2019. I drove past the old place, and wow! The road is paved, and all our trees and shrubs are gone. So, all the old blog posts are irrelevant. Starting again from scratch. Seems an appropriate endeavor for Spring. I love Spring. It's Spring again, and were in our new place. I'm coming back to document my off-the-cuff attempt at greenery. Vitex Chaste I'll start with a Palm Coast Arbor Day tree we got in 2021: A Vitex Chaste Put this one in the ground as a little stub about two years ago. Loquat I've been hoping to get a loquat in the ground forever, and I got one from Fast-Growing-Trees.com.

I LOVED them. :) Chicago Hardy Fig Also got a little fig tree from Fast Growing Trees. I d...

Some of the trees have gotten bigger, impressively so, but they may be at a slight angle due to the unforgiving force of heat transportation. As of right now, I am at home. I'm not working today. I have lost my voice with some sort of viral madness, but I am meandering around my yard trying to soak some vitamin Florida into my bones and realize I'll be getting the itch to mingle with leaves and sun and soil all too soon. I need a shovel, stat! Where the Red Bay Grows Look at this tree! This tree was a little shrub just two years ago. When we first moved into the house, we had a water oak that was growing in this spot but it resigned its life to wood burrowing insects, and we had to have it removed. This red bay will be assuming the new floral leadership role in our front yard. It's doing well. Banana Plants I don't even know which ones ar...

August: Are the Plants Okay?

We live just north of East Central Florida. It is August. I can feel the breath of the sun. So today, I wanted to give an update on the things I planted in spring, because the sun’s breath is a little unforgiving. Here’s a Fig. Loquat
