Hiya Granny,

It's a pictorial update from my garden. And it's doing great.
Every plant is from seed, to seedling. Bless their little seedling hearts.

I had to destroy 30 corn plants because of root problems.
And this Corn plant was the only one to survive my destruction.
Btw, the flowers are real. Have a look,

Then there's this,

God Bless You,

It is long past time for you to check in, so glad you did.

The plants are looking good, all my favorite food s and flowers.

What went wrong with the corn?

The Iris and Gerb.Daisey put on a good show, beautiful.

Try using the young chard as lettuce in a cheese with mustard sandwich...........LOL, one of my favorites.

I put the beets greens and chard in with lettuce and whatever else there is to pinch off and enjoy a mixed salad, or in sandwiches.

I had no idea so many different leaves would taste good, until a friend gave me a bunch he had chopped up, all kinds mixed and I have never been satisfied with ‘one’ green at a time since then.

Is the mighty squash growing well?
