Happy Holidays

It is a warm, and sunny day. I have planted some carrot and green onion seeds. Hopefully the weather will be nice to the seeds so that they will germinate well. The broccoli looks beautiful. The lettuces and cabbage are holding up to the crazy weather patterns.
Last month, I bought a Improved Meyer lemon tree for $64.It looks very healthy in a 7 gallon pot. I wanted something nice in the patio and I thought a dwarf fruit tree would be fantastic. I know it won't get all the sunshine it needs but a lot of citrus trees here don't get all the 6-8 hours it needs. Well, I hope to take great care of it. It had about 20 lemons on it before I harvested half of it.
So glad to be back from camping in Death Valley. Beautiful and awesome scenery out there. The off-roading can be fun but my Subaru is getting too old. Trips are hard because I know I need to water my garden. I ask people to do it for me but that can go either. The way one waters....can either be beneficial or detrimental.
