Calling all bees

12/04/2015 by Holly

So…

peas

 

Lots of flowers.

 

Not a one.

No peas.  Nernt.  Not a one.

Hopefully no peas *yet* but that remains to be seen.

I thought these were self-pollinators.  Maybe I thought wrong.

This is my first time growing cold weather crops…but let’s be real…here in the deep south we should call them “cool weather crops.”  Or better yet, “do I need my sweater today? Naaaaah.-crops.”

 

In other news, it looks like no homegrown broccoli this season.

David is wailing and beating his fists into our pre-fab hardwoods.

Or maybe he’s checking his fantasy football score.  That one…it’s probably that one.

He does eat peas, so pea growth might be helpful.  C’MON MAN.

Oh, hi there

I'm Holly from zone 7b.
My veggies grow above ground where the rabbits help themselves, and the flowers grow in ground where the children help themselves. Sometimes I wish I was a pioneer. Then I move the clothes from the washer to the dryer and think better of it.
