I grew tomatoes in big pots on the deck for several years, but didn't buy any this year. I was really tempted however when I was in the greenhouse buying flowers because they had some very nicely started tomato plants.Sarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06412341664506380343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456722259350114571.post-35086698899796801882022-06-05T22:24:45.860-05:002022-06-05T22:24:45.860-05:00The one tomato plant is huge.

Grubs raised havoc with our front yard and the birds further damaged it by digging around for the grubs... grrrrr. Hubby has replanted the grass, hoping it will come back and the grubs will stay away.

I helped but he did the work. :-) Ain't that the way? Something kept eating the green beans. As soon as they poked their tiny heads out of the ground, something ate them that night. I think deer or bunnies so we put a fence up. It's such a tiny area it looks a bit silly. We have 3 rows of green beans,(mostly eaten by something), 4 zuchinni, 1 cucumber, 1 green pepper, 1 cherry tomato for Mom. She eats tomatoes like candy. <br />Hope you're having a wonderful Sunday. We're expecting thunderstorms to roll in within half an hour or so.<br />Blessings and love,<br />BetsyBetsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00807691752817225336noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456722259350114571.post-76560468031965667342022-06-05T15:45:28.464-05:002022-06-05T15:45:28.464-05:00Your yard looks so green and pretty.
