Wow Beavis! It all looks so good, but I was surprised to see you still had peppers, have you not gotten any freezes yet?

Not even close.

I still have some tomatoes too, I just didn't photograph them.

Its been in the high thirties at night here, a very warm and mostly dry January so far.

In fact, my snow peach is starting to bloom right now which deeply concerns me.

Time for you to make me jealous again! So nice to see something green and growing! Keep posting pics- don't forget your friends in the North!

Will do Lesa.

I always feel guilty posting this time of the year when everyone else is covered with snow.

Well if you're at least feeling guilty that makes it easier for us to bear!

For goodness sake, Beavis! Must you gloat about not having frost? I mean, really, some of us are dealing with nasty frost every single morning and can only dream about planting. Ugghhhh! However, I will grudgingly admit that your garden looks wonderful and I'm happy for you that you can enjoy your garden all year round. Please, just try to have some empathy for the rest of us - guilt is a good start. . . .

I can only dream right now. I would show you a picture of my garden, but you wouldn't be able to see it with this white background!

Beavis...is that grid panel one of those concrete reinforcement ones? Why and how do you use it? especially on top of the radishes?

Everything looks wonderful, except I see some grass/weeds in some of those beds!
