How does your garden grow?

My garden is growing just fine thank you very much. This strange weather is having an effect on my black thumbs.

Our back yard is looking lovely. Of course, that's due to Don's physical labour and has nothing to do with my thumbs.

This one's a little blurry. I was just SO excited that my African Violet had bloomed. I have owned African Violets for 44 years and this is the first time one has ever bloomed.

Even the Felinious seed I planted has sprouted and grown into this big, fat, juicy Cat Plant.

I'm on a roll. Maybe I should plant an actual garden next year.

You forgot to water the catplant. It's gone all brown.

She doesn't like being watered and if she turns green I'll be very worried.

The cat plant is fabulous. Did you clone Angel?

She's a little miffed that I disturbed her afternoon snooze.

Congrats on the African Violet bloom. People don't realize how rare that is.

My mom's green thumb kept her African Violets in constant bloom. I'm hoping mine might bloom again before autumn.

So. Going to harvest that cat or dry it out and use it for seed next year? Fine specimen.

Neither. She disappeared before I could do either one.
