    These are my potted veggies, tomatoes and cucumbers. Yesterday, I found the first two cucumbers on the vine.
    I have some beans, too, but they're still small.

    How lovely, nasturtiums bring back so many childhood memories. The flowers themselves, the colours, the crisp fresh stems... they are like no other flower. Simply adding one to a salad is so beautiful too! Thank you Karen, so sweet.

    About 3 months ago, I planted this elephant ear into a 15-inch pot. I knew that they get big, but I thought that the size of the pot would restrict the growth some.
    Boy, was I wrong:

    With a 13-inch ruler:

    Wow! What do you feed them?

    They're beautiful!
