A Walk Around My Garden

   The grass is dry and brown but I am keeping the plants and veggies well watered.

Lots of blooms on the hibiscus that I over wintered indoors.


Flowers just starting to appear on the potato plants.


Ten potatoes have sprouted and behind them are the raspberry bushes. Not much fruit this year.


A very miserable tomato plant - I have watered it twice today but it definitely does not like the heat!

  1. Poor tomato - he really does look extremely unhappy. How is he now?

  2. Needs to go to the tomato hospital I think! They usually like heat too - at least mine do - when DH worked in the tomato greenhouses as a student picking tomatoes it was 120degrees in there. Hope he recovers after his drink of water. Potatoes looking good though.x

  3. We have just harvested our first potatoes. A couple of huge ones alongside some more manageable little ones. Still waiting for our tomatoes, although we haven't had your prolonged heat.

    1. I don't think I can dig up any potatoes for a while yet.

    1. Unfortunately they don't last long. Still a few buds to open.

  5. Oh dear those tomato plants don't look very happy do they, I hope that they rally soon. Love the colour of your hibiscus, it's just stunning.
    Thanks for stopping by my blog this week, hope to see you again soon.
    Maggie.

    1. I am watering them more frequently and they do seem to be recovering.

  6. I didn't realize hibiscus could be kept small like that (compared to garden size on the west coast and in HI.) That's awesome! It looks great!
