It Ain't Over Yet


The garden does not appear to be dead, even though we had 2 nights of frost. The wind has turned to the south and the day seems really nice (as I press my little nose against the glass of the window at work, staring at a gorgeous blue sky). We may get more beans yet out of those plants. OH! And I'll soon be harvesting my 3 lemons from the dwarf lemon tree! They're turning the appropriate yellow-orange color. It is exciting. Above is a picture of the lemon tree in bloom (Lemon tree, very pretty...). This was back in February. Lemons take a long time to grow and ripen. Patience is a virtue, and gardening helps you develop it.
