Poached egg plant and other flowers.


The Tibet potatoes have been lifted at last. It is a good crop of excellent potatoes but it is too late to plant a green manure cover crop in the beds that are now empty and bare. So, I have been transplanting some of the many poached egg plants that have self seeded everywhere. It is a little more work than throwing down seeds but I am full of anticipation for next spring when they will flower.


One of the potato beds just filled with little poached egg plant transplants.

This was taken in June, The bees just loved the poached egg plant.
