GARDENING

I don't know what solipsister is alluding to, re persimmons.

I've only seen one tree, and it was glorious, in front of a Neutra house I was working a re do at. I suppose I have a slide, but it is imbedded in all my stuff. But I remember it as well pruned and fulgent, all at the same time.

The virbinium wall

Pear tree planted last year. Wild raspberris behind,.....to the right a neat tree I dug up on the back of the property. Beeautiful white flowers on the top,...trying to find the name.

June garden update:

Marigolds doing their best to guard my strawberries and tomato plants from pests.


Garden is coming along nicely, making great progress. The better boy tomato plant is about to outgrow the wire cage.



The tomato plants are just loaded with tomatoes.



Some of them are as big as a fist already!



Something has started munching on the leaves, looks like some kind of a fly that co-habitates with the fire ants in their nests. At least that's what it seems like. A bunch of flies emerged from between the paver bricks in the same spot as one of the portals the fire ants used after we had a good rain a few days ago.

Will have to get some neem tea and garlic granuales to fight them off.
