Very well, actually! I went out this morning to soak down my grass in the front yard, and discovered, much to my delight, that I'm actually growing grass!
The Early Girls are looking good, too! Check out the size of these tomatoes! And, there's several more blossoms that will become tomatoes soon!
The bell peppers are doing great as well. We've got a couple good-sized peppers, and dozens of buds!
All-in-all, I'm pleased with the progress of both the garden and the lawn. It's really very satisfying to grow and maintain plants. I can understand why people say gardening and yard work in general can be relaxing and therapeutic!
Okay, it's not much, and it's not coming up everywhere, but, hey, it's grass and it's growing, so it's a start!
Later I went around to the back to check on the progress of the veggies my mom and I have growing in pots along the side of the house. If we learn nothing else about "Container Gardening" it's to only have one plant per pot. Previously we've put two or three plants in one large pot, but they've never done terribly well. This year, we put one plant in each pot, and they're all doing fabulously! Check it out:
