What's Growing

I am loving November!  It's satisfying seeing things green in the yard after months of ridiculous heat in the desert.  Even as I am talking though, it's 8pm and still 79 degrees outside but the mornings are cool and refreshing.  Allergies have also been kicking my butt since we had our grass scalped and reseeded.

This rainbow pepper plant that my mom had given me a few months ago is re-sprouting leaves and little peppers after my handy job of almost killing it.



And this is my first time attempting to grow sweet peas.  I need to do a better job at creating a trellis for these.  And I randomly scattered some wildflower seeds that are sprouting around the climbing sweet peas.


My next planter has basil, cilantro and baby rainbow pepper plants that I have thinned.  These pepper plants were a surprise after a fallen pepper burst and the seeds did their own thing.  Cute!! (Yep, I think they are cute indeed)!

 


And my dear husband came home with these beautiful tulips just because.  I love "just because" flowers!!
