I got things like SeaKale, Schizandra, Serviceberry, Amole and Hawthorn, among other things
My Horizon Herbs order has not shipped yet, i looked up my account and it says backorder.... so i guess i won't know for a while. I'm a little annoyed, i wish the website was kept up to date better. If something is unavailable it should not be purchasable until it is ready. Its not a huge problem to me, but i'm just sayin'.....
Shopping bag-full in the fridge
Out in the garden i have more yellow squashes. I'm still enjoying it but the yearly novelty has worn off.
I need to pick more green beans today and i'm out of room in the freezer so i will eat or give them away.
They aren't producing enough for a big enough canner-load that i'd consider worth the effort. If i had ripe tomatoes i'd do some cans of beans and some cans of tomatoes in one load.
I have been enjoying the Canning forum at the Ball website. Its a bit slow there, but the members do answer questions within a day and seem to know their stuff. They are also patient with multiple questions.
I have an Artichoke!
And... what is this?
A little closer....
Ooooh! Its turning color!
I didn't expect Siberia to be the first to start ripening. It was the last tomato seedling i was able to get in the garden and it was not the first to flower. Its also partially shaded from both ends- the corn in the morning and the other tomatoes by the afternoon....
And look at all these green tomatoes!
Even the Topsy Turvy is putting a real effort forward.
Size comparison with the onions
Hale's Best i think....
Are you ready for some Football? Almost.
Unfortunately the Pony Yellow cracked, but there are more.

Surprised this missed my daughter's attention....
Carnival squash
The great pumpkin turning orange
A Point One cabbage that seems to have fully recovered
Corn silk
And tassels
Siberian Motherwort
The patio set... sans camp chairs. It was threatening rain so we put them away. We got those Coleman folding canvas chairs. They are more convenient than non-foldy chairs because we can take them anywhere and they store much easier.
And this is Chuck... Chuck likes collard greens....
Chuck won't be eating my collard greenss anymore, since he has been relocated to a nice place about 8 miles from here.
Oh, and here's what my hubby calls my Nuclear Reactor
Its the warning stickers that freak him out.
We've had sporadic rain showers but nothing substantial. It has gotten hotter in the last day or so and humidity was really high today. Nothing like the middle of the US is getting.
Still trying to keep up on weeding. That seems to be the way of it this time of year.
The seeds i got from Bountiful Gardens will likely be Wintersown since they are shrubby or hardy type plants.
I need to sort through my collection so i have some idea of what i have going on or else i will end up buying even more seeds.... i can't use them all as it is!
