More Garden....

It was so quiet and still this morning. We were given another nice rain during the night.

This tomato is a "Legend". At Graye's Greenhouse there was a note that it was the most requested tomato plant last year. Of course we have to have what everyone else does.
We will have to wait and see how they taste.

Another "corn" plant tropical. This one is a popcorn plant. Doesn't look exactly like popcorn but smells like MJR theater lobby (not that their popcorn is good, but it does smell that way).

I was browsing USA Today news, many tragedies this week, and I read this article about the Amish. If you have time, it is a good read for Sunday morning.

What a lovely garden you have. Looks like you'll be enjoying those tomatoes soon. That popcorn plant is unusual too. I've not ever seen or smelt one. How cute that it smells like popcorn too. Lots of tragedies in the news for sure and I'm praying for all those dear people affected. Sure makes you very thankful for a nice day. It's to be another hot hot one here. We had thunderstorms last night and another heat warning for today too.
Take good care and have a wonderful Sunday.

Your tomatoes look great, I even see beans and corn. Is that dill also growing there along with them? I'm disappointed in my tomatoes this year, they seem so slow to ripen!

I hate reading the news sometimes.

Your garden looks wonderful!! So lush and full and thriving!!! I'm so jealous!! Thanks for the link to the article ~ truly make one pause and reconsider your perspective, doesn't it? I've long admired how the Amish handle tragedies and strife.....Hope your having a blessed Sunday! Smiles & Hugs ~ Robin
