GOD is growing these greens SO fast that i can barely keep up with them...the Summer Squash (
Upo) is the fastest growing -- each morning, it seems to have grown a foot just overnight! The tomatoes are about to bloom...i think this is the big fruit variety.
Squash leaves like lace in the morning sunlight...
This bromeliad bloom has been around for two months or so...
Squash leaves with fuzz...at the
bush farm in Lagiloa, i cook the squash tops (the tender leaves and shoots) in stir fry or soup.
These Chinese peas are also shooting up and up...
Eggplants...the big fruit variety.
Remember the first group of fish Mom got too attached to -- the one with
Bubblehead? Well, they were fertilizer for the veges some months back. Then a new batch was brought in, but a big white egret feasted on most of them. So this is the third generation bunch -- much protected and much petted and spoiled! Mom thinks they get hungry like people (or like herself) and wants to feed them more than the twice a day -- which is already too much. And i've
sternly told her not to buy any more -- that they're getting stressed out from over-crowding! (If i were in this pond, i'd go bonkers from the overpopulation...HAH!)
i appreciate being reminded each and every day that GOD grows the increase, no matter who plants or waters.
The "junk yard"...beautified with GOD-stuff.
This pot of lilies was in the "junk yard" section! i discovered it with its yet-to-unfurl blooms during a "photo session" -- left there from last season, all but forgotten. Life is like that -- GOD surprises us with wonderFUL unexpected blessings to remind us of His infinite goodness and generosity.
Those peach blooms lasted but a two or three weeks...and here's the latest transformation...
Mom wanted to trash this prickly bromeliad variety (i saved a couple from the trash) because she gets pricked when she gardens near them -- but the flowers are so pretty (red, white and blue) that we've decided to keep them to line the fence area as defense against those cats that jump over the fence to eye the fish, maybe thinking they'd make a tasty snack!
Mom said to let them sit awhile in the house after picking them to finish the ripening process (they are a bit tart). i've told Mom several times to just spread my ashes under this tree when i'm called to be with the LORD JESUS --
in Heaven.
