Update: apartment gardening

My little garden is doing so well. I've been quite impressed with how it's done, especially since it's just potted plants and not a proper garden. Let's see where things are out there.

Look at how well my little strawberries are doing. Go, strawberries, go!
My mini sunflowers are seizing the day, are they not?

Look how big that bell pepper has gotten. A month ago, there weren't even buds on the plant.
This is the latest harvest of jalapenos to be picked. Yes, harvest. They are so yummy.
These tomatoes are still growing away.

I had a grasshopper visit. I took a pic of him, and then shooed him away from my plants.

And I caught my first cicada. They don't make those out wet where I grew up. I was amazed at how nasty they are - and loud!

  2. Cool... I have a little garden in my condo balcony. Though the flowers bloom well but the cucumbers I planted in plastic containers are taking forever to grow :( They die out as soon as they are about 1 inch. Your garden looks wonderful.

    We have a link-up party going on - Tea Time Thursdays @ Kreative Korner. I would really appreciate if you'd link up some of your awesome posts there. Hope to see you at the party.
