  • So, Mom's gotten some extra money from working online lately...

    ...and is helping me buy plants for next year!

    Mom bought hot peppers, regular peppers, regular tomatos, collards, eggplant and some other things.
    Today we got:
    Butternut squash
    Red zebra tomatos
    Speckled/Striped roma tomatos
    Nyagous tomato
    spaghetti squash
    brandywine tomatos
    spacemaster cucumber
    cherokee purple tomato
    crimsonsweet watermelon
    green hubbard squash
    jubilee watermelon
    boston pickling cucumbers
    green zebra tomato
    sugarbaby watermelon
    german red strawberry tomato

    And:

    Connecticut field pumpkins


    ...all on ebay for a dollar a piece and a dollar shipping =D

    Mostly from the same seller so it adds up to even less than that.

    Also:
    I'm now soaking my banana seeds til tomorrow night so that I can plant them in a pot and hope that I see a sproutling over the next six months.


     And to introduce you to two plants that're currently taking residence in my room:

    Undead lilac! We thought it was dead but as you can see it has come back to lifeee!


    And...


    This is my miniature rose's FOURTH and best bloom.
     My Dad got it for me, for christmas last year.

    Also today! Discoveries!

    CATNIP! Actually, it wasn't us who discovered it...but our cats. Btw, I didn't just dump those leaves on the table...I put them there after picking some to show you all, went to get my camera...and when I came back, the king of the house...Ozzie had eaten half of them.

    Seeee. It was by our fence. There was so much of it that you don't even see all of it mixed in with the grass here.
     Also in this general area, we found alot of wild carrot, rabbit's ear, and goodness knows what else.
