Hollywood Plum Cuttings |
 |
Sungold Tomato Plants 5.8.14 |
Puttering around the yard.
The
Hollywood Plum cuttings continue to have small leaves. None of them has dried off. The
Shiro Plum cuttings' leaves all crispified and died. I weeded around the living cuttings. It is raining today. If they stay alive, that's a bunch of little plum trees. Hollywood is a very tasty, very richly colored plum.
Planted the 2
Sungold tomato plants today. They doubled in size in a couple of weeks. I hope the seedlings progress well too.
The
Cincinnati Market radishes are interesting. They are shaped like carrots, but the flavor is all radish, juicy and peppery.

The front yard trees all look pretty good. I planted these Summer 2012. This is the first bloom for the Mountain ash. The Laburnum bloomed last year, but it was cut short by frost. I don't know if the Greenspire Linden will bloom.
The Laburnum was leaning with the wind, so it got a stake to straighten it. That will need to stay in place for a year or two.
All of the trees have had some dilute doses of organic nitrogen in late winter and spring, for a boost.
