A few days of rain caused most of the current crop of red tomatoes to split. The yellow and purple tomatoes withstood the change in moisture much better. Despite the loss, Chris still brings in oodles of tomatoes each evening.
It’s a crazy tomato jungle out there.
His green peppers are looking lovely.
My ground cherries, which were either planted by a previous owner, or were completely wild, are growing like gangbusters. But sadly, for the second year in a row, inside of these pretty pods the fruit is rotting before it matures. I am contemplating ripping out the whole diseased patch.
Ground cherry.
The raspberry bushes and strawberries are doing beautifully.
. . .But I fear that the strawberries have ambitions to take over the world.
The asparagus continues to prosper, thanks to Chris’ weeding.
Last but not least, Chris’ ladybugs continue to patrol the garden.
