Although I started back to school with a staff development day today, the weather is still screaming SUMMER loud and clear. I know that we still have at least a month of insanely hot temperatures to get through until things start to feel like fall - and probably more. Nonetheless, fall vegetables are coming in at the nurseries and I know they will not linger long, so I am trying to get started on fall planting. With lots of watering, hopefully I will have some success.
I planted some begonias yesterday, for Love.
This evening, I planted eating plants: one cucumber plant in the erstwhile salad garden. I will add two nice tomato plants I picked up on Saturday later this week and then I will really have a salad garden again. I planted one zucchini in the vegetable garden. I planted some more basil in my herb pot.
I love my tiny little container gardens.

Lovely! I love planting things I can eat.
Wow, it's so amazing to think of starting plants at this time of year. What a lucky long season you have there!
That's great! I ended up giving up on a veggie patch this year because it was so cold and wet for much of the summer.
I cannot imagine that it has been cold somewhere in the country. It is SO hot in Texas!
