The House of Green

What's in the greendhouse? Glad you asked...
Let me show you...



This is the first batch of seeds that I started back in January before we left for San Diego. From the left we have parsley, cucumber, canteloupe, bell pepper, chives and tarragon. I had started them indoors and then moved them out when I thought it was warm enough. Turns out it was warm enough for the cucumbers. I lost them. The tarragon and parsley aren't very happy and probably will loose them also.


Here we have some heirloom tomatoes that my mom started the week after we got back.

Here's a batch of the same thing that I started the first time. I put them out almost immediately. The weather has been cooperating. However, I forgot to soak the parsley before I planted them so they probably won't come up. Geez!!




These are some heirloom tomatoes that I seeded today.




And some mint and catnip that I picked up at the nursery. God help me I can not go to the nursery and NOT buy some sort of plant. I have a problem.




And last but not least is Doug's experimental tomatoes. Apparently, tomatoes can be grown the same way as tobacco plants. It reminds me of an episode of the Simpson's where Homer grows tomaco's. Tomatoes grown with tobacco. Then whole town becomes addicted. Brilliant! I'm surprised we haven't seen them on the shelf at the store.

And....a cat...
