dreamflowerLast week I posted about my garden and my tomatoes, and I promised some pics. Thanks to ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
danachan I am now able to show you!
The first four pics are of my tomatoes, growing upside down, as I told you, and thriving!
Here's a couple of close-ups of my little green tomatoes, which, with all the rain over the last week, are a good deal larger now, though still just as green!
Now, here's my garden. This was once a galvanized metal cattle trough I bought from a Farm-supply store. It fortunately already had a drain hole. I painted it with outdoor acrylics, and filled it with a combination of garden soil and compost. The flamingo is a Katrina survivor; the potted plant next to the garden is rosemary. I have marigolds, basil, chives, oregano, sage, peppers, spaghetti squash and cucumbers planted, but the spaghetti squash has taken over everything, just about! (I'd originally meant to plant it in a separate container, but that didn't happen.)
Here's a picture of the DH's rocks. He set them up as a sort of little seating area near the back of the yard.
And here's a close up of some of my painted rocks. The one in the middle is a hobbit-hole, of course!!
At any rate, that's *some* of what I have going on in my backyard!!
