Post by Charles »

Good garden so far. Had to spray twice for mealy bugs but now under control.
First Photo
Seedling came up two summers ago. It has rounded base pad. All other pads are oval.

I'm experimenting with a BIG clear plastic storage container as a greenhouse substitute. I think it will be okay.
