Flowers and more
Mitzi's Clementis and her daughter "Flo"
Our "Wine" colored iris has finally bloomed.
My wife, Glinda, is cleaning out the row of iris so she can better enjoy the blooms.
Each year it seems we plant more and more garden and esp. tomatoes. Yesterday evening we planted 50 and today we planted another 250 tomato plants. WE already had 100 planted when our granddaughter "Flossie" came out to help us. I noted the time and in 25 minutes the three of us managed to plant 150 tomato plants. I dug the holes, Glinda carried the plants and took them from the pots and as the photo below shows, "Flossie" planted and covered the plants. Now we are planning on stopping at another two hundred plants when we get done. We should end up with a total of 500 plants.
