The above photo is of the Sweet potato bed. It was not deep enough. I added 2x4's to make the sides 3 1/2 inches taller. Last year the sweet potatoes grew down into the hard clay.
It took two wheelbarrows full of used potting soil to fill it up.
Monday afternoon I moved the tomato plants in jumbo six packs up to quart containers. I used recycled potting soil.
I planted a bunch of pepper and tomato plants. There are seventy-two plants per tray.
The first planting of beans died. I think that the days were to short to keep them going. The next plantings were pole beans and today I notice flowers.
The Red Bud in front of our house is really pretty. This is the pretest that I have seen in our yard.
Here is a closer look at the beautiful flowers.
There are not many weeds in the strawberry patch. I got most of what was left. There is a shadow of my hat and head in the late afternoon sun.
Above is a small plant that has two flowers. Last year we didn't get many berries. I am expecting a good crop this year.
Beautiful phlox. I cleaned out the weeds.
Carol was wheeled out for an x-ray. While she was gone the blood pressure cuff started pumping and it wasn't on the wrist of anyone. I thought it might burst. It didn't.
