This year August has much more still in bloom, in fact my Firebird Dahlia is just opening the petals on 3 blossoms today (Aug 28) and my Thomas Edison purple beauty has one open as well. Hoping for a late frost so that I get to enjoy the rest of the buds opening up as well.
Tomatoes and Vegetables
The tomatoes are slow to ripen on the plants and are later than usual. Again, I blame the last of sunshine this summer.
August 7 Super Sensation
The Super Sensation had the most number of tomatoes on it and the Lemon Boy had the least.
The first tomatoe to ripen on the vine was actually an Early Girl even though that plant had the least amount of sunshine. because of where it was located.
