Garden 2014 — Update

The roses are gone for another year.  But, they were more beautiful and more prolific than ever before.  The deep red blooms were stunning.

That gorgeous shade of deep dark red fades with each new each day.

Each color has its own beauty.

And, every unique bloom offers beauty to the world.

The other two, not so much…

Straining to the left in search of sun, it’s a goofy little tree.

The White Princess Peach

Sadly, the windstorm knocked most of the peaches off the tree about 2 weeks ago.

Some appear to be ripening much faster than others.  Another strong wind, knocked at least another 2 dozen peaches off this week.  Around 2 dozen peaches remain on the tree.  But, the tree appears to be very healthy.  So, this might be for the best.

The tiny apricot tree in the back was planted the same day.  It bloomed nicely this spring.  There were dozens of pretty little blossoms.

New Blossoms On Top

Because of the heavy rain, we’ve already fertilized once.  This made them sprout like crazy.

This is the garden today.

The Juliets are the tallest.  The Sun Gold Cherries are very close behind and they’re also the most fruitful.

This was about three weeks ago.

Rainbow Blend Cherries From Seed

Given that I started these seeds about two weeks too late, it’s a miracle they’re sprouting so beautifully.  The good news?  If the squirrels don’t kill them, I’ll have some cherry tomatoes later in the season.

A project in the kitchen has kept us extremely busy this year.  But, we’ll be enjoying the fruits of our labor…

…soon.
