Picture of the Day


Don't call it a comeback


Yet.

But, do you see what I see?

A bell pepper flower? With beautiful green leaves surrounding it?

So exciting!

I'm trying not to let my bell pepper dreams run away with me but I'm already thinking of all the things I can make with these as-of-yet-nonexistent fruits.

We were about ready to throw in the shovel (sorry, I had to) and then the plants had a rebound. I'm not sure what caused it. We did fertilize them and give them extra water. And when we watered THIS time, they had mulch to protect them from the bacteria that supposedly splashed up on their lower leaves.

We'll see. Keep your fingers crossed and your good bell-pepper vibes coming.
