Green Thumb Endeavors Update

Big Changes!

Hi! So back in early June I checked in with you about how our little potted garden was growing. Everything was really going great...until last week.

The Good News

All through June I watered the pots and watched everything grow. Even added some lettuce plants and we were really enjoying that. So were our bunnies.

Here are some photos of the re-potted petunias and tomato.

These are tomatoes from a plant we didn't start but added for variety. Very tasty!

Gorgeous daisies too. They were already in the garden.

Another look at the petunias and tomato plant. 

I counted four buds on the petunia besides the open bloom.

June had some rain, but not a lot. That's why I kept watering the pots. 

Plus they are kind of sheltered on the porch. I didn't want storm winds to blow them over.

The Bad News

Xyra startled a groundhog last week. 

I'm really hoping with continued care the plants will come back. Oh, well. It's been so dry the yard is brown and crunches under your feet, so his normal food may not be available. Now I'm praying he stays away from the tomatoes.

That's all for now. I'll keep you posted on our garden throughout the rest of the season. Do you grow any vegetables? What's your favorite?

Haley will take over tomorrow. She's going to tell you about her trip and visit with Alya.

See you again soon!
