Gardening Time
by admin on Feb.08, 2010, under Uncategorized
It’s been a hot summer day and with the rising temperature and no rain my plants are hardly surviving but I have some cucumbers and salad greens that are still doing good despite the dry weather. I have deadheaded my perennials and have collected dried seeds for my annuals for next year planting. There was one watermelon plant that grew from nowhere and I fertilized it this morning hoping that it will give me at least one big fruit. I have just picked a pint blueberry of from my blueberry bushes and I am hoping to collect some more in the next days to come. It’s nice to have fresh fruits so I will make my delicious blueberry cheesecake from my blueberry fruits that I have gathered today. My limelight hydrangeas are just in the right time for picking and I got some so I can bring the outside view inside. I will use my freshly picked basil leaves to make dough for a pizza. The good thing about having your own herb and vegetable garden is that it makes you flexible as to what you will prepare to eat for the day.
