Heavy rain leads to mud, which leads me to discover that my boots are cracked. I might as well be wearing sandals. Where does one buy woman size boots these days?

| Planted this in spring, but only now starting to grow and flower. I'm worried it won't be ripe in time for winter. Sep 25, 2011 | |||||

Did you manage to coax your luffa to grow up a trellis? Mine seems rather determined to crawl along the ground. Did you let it dry on the stock? I was thinking that next year,... more » |

Medlars are something out of history books. I never had one before, but the idea of growing one was just too wonderfully romantic to pass up. |

Sunny morning after the storm. The plants watered by the rain, saves me the trouble. I see one Giant Kale slumped over, hope it's not broken. First I want to enjoy my coffee before a flurry of repairs and harvesting.
