Was that a sunflower? Gorgeous!!
Beautiful garden
Love the bee balm! Mine got dug up and killed by something (turkey, maybe). I protected my cabbages with big netting last year, and it worked very well. I felt like it was even protected from the sun last year (which was crazy strong!) I've been enjoying my borage as a cold infusion (a long with lemon balm). My borage got blown over (along with echinacea, elecampane, and chamomile) last week during a bad storm. But it's still doing well. I try to always remind myself that there is always next year
And if there isn't? I won't care!
I have always wondered why they call it a cabbage moth, when it is actually a butterfly. Moths have antenna that look like ferns, whereas butterflies' antenna are just a stem with a knob on the end. Also, just a reminder, your anise hyssop is at the perfect stage to harvest for tea. Leaves and flowers are just fine, but soon those flowers will get seedy. I still consider anise hyssop to make the best tasting tea you can grow. I'm actually harvesting mine today.
I'm a late bloomer too Kaye (not sure I have fully bloomed even at 71) I too live in Tennessee and put off tilling due to other chores, then the rains came and well. Finally two weeks ago I tilled and put in rows of collards and zuke mounds and tomato mounds.
Everything is coming up splendidly. But then the Japanese beetles hit the roses and apple trees a week ago destroying them just like last year. The biting bugs have now hit the collards even though the leaves are only silver dollar size. I am going to start harvesting the largest leaves every evening. The leaves with the holes can go to the chickens. The collards will keep producing until November even while they are under assault. Covering them would be a great idea. I think I will get some covering. (I would like to share how vastly improved my garden soil is after one year dumping the pine shavings/ chicken droppings from the chicken cage into the garden once a month.) I tilled it all in and the plants are loving it!!
I cut the worms in half with scissors without pulling them off and move on to the next. Works great!😀
Those crazy worms will go after your tomatoes/peppers too but probably prefer cabbage/broccoli. You can also use a black light at dusk to find them as they will glow on the plants. Chickens love the worms if you have a lot to give to someone you know. Hope the covers help with cooling the plants…
Oh kaye, I see them they are green,naughty caterpillar s.in uk here we call them cabbage caterpillar s,from the cabbage white,kake please look again, they are near the poop and they are green.😮.oh im pointing to thrm.😮😢😊😅.xxx
Borage is so pretty. 😊😊
Kaye at last you got yhrm,I was getting so worried 😟 😊. Cabbage white butterflies my gardening neighbour calls them .im surprised that the birds haven't gobled them up.maybe not tasty..😊
Oh my rather large butterfly bush (budlia ) is now in tons of flowers. Im hoping th s t we get some good butterflies to come .im eagerly waiting. Kaye thank-you for another lovely vidio.hello to darling cats.god bless 🙏 you,from me and my garden girls 🐔. Xx😊
You’re hanging tough ms. K. Your own baby plants.❤sometimes they take longer and have their own schedule. Much more satisfaction, for sure! My seedlings died so I sent mr. Blair up the road to Johnson’s ….one of your recommended places, thank you! He bought me 6 cab and 6 broc.on 3/22. All I have room for in this area. The brussells I planted 4/15 are struggling and just taking up space at this point. 😱. They’re under tulle. The newest thing??? THAT JAPANESE BEETLE.
The flowers are gorgeous! Your whole garden looks great!
Appreciate the detailed breakdown! I have a quick question: I have a SafePal wallet with USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (air carpet target dish off jeans toilet sweet piano spoil fruit essay). How should I go about transferring them to Binance?
That rock wall behind you!!! I love this! That garden! Beautiful…….
Kay honey you need glasses, I saw a half dozen worms on that plant.
