Sprig Winter Growing - 2018 / 2019

[SprigOfTheLivingDead]

I have a tough time trimming down plants and sometimes that means tall tomatoes. However, I've never seen my jalapenos grow like this before. Curious to see what happens when some fat fruit starts growing on these :/.

Thats a good 9' ceiling

I tried to plant some Calif Buckeye's a few years ago. They are the first to bloom and the first to die off. Don't know if they ever took since we moved.

Are you speaking of the buckeye tree or a perennial flowering plant like rudbeckia?

ahh...I meant first to leaf out and first to die off. But they do bloom just before they die off. They get brown and dried up by August.

Makes more sense now.

I am also growing Kentucky Coffee Tree, which are last to leaf out and first to drop. Haha. People mistake them for being sick or dying all the time

I have two very old Walking Stick plants at the new place. One got blown over and the huge pot broke. Anyway, they are darn ugly. Brown leaves all the time when I go over to check the place. They too look sick and dying.
