Fall in the Garden...November
I got home from work an hour early today (exciting because the sun was still out!) and decided to take a quick photo walk around the yard. I love fall in California! Still have flowers blooming, pansies and Alstroemeria and roses…
The lilacs are turning color, adding a nice touch of yellow…
While the maidenhair fern is still fresh and green (till the first frost!)…
The onion seeds have sprouted and are growing!
And the radishes and garlic are jumping out of the ground!
The Big Boy tomatoes are still setting blossoms and the green fruit looks so promising we’re ready to drape some sheet plastic over them before it’s cold enough to do damage…maybe we’ll have a few tomatoes for Thanksgiving dinner!
The lettuce is still providing nice salads and the beets are growing along toward spring harvest!
The “girls” seem happy enough in the cool weather (47 at night but 80 in the day…what!!!) but still only one laying an egg a day with a missed day here and there…What’s growing in your garden? Any tips to share about fall/winter gardening? Share with us…pleeeeezzz!
Hope you enjoy kicking your way through the leaves as much as I do!
