It has been raining since yesterday. We should get at least 2 inches by the time the storm moves out on Sunday. This is a very warm rain for February, it was 58 at 6:00 AM. Hoping we don't have any flooding or mudslides!
I took the photos below on Wednesday. Also picked a big batch of lettuces and onions before the rain started yesterday. Lots of flowers blooming which I added to my salad.

2nd planting of Lacinato Kale |

Speckles Lettuce, one of our favorites this year. |
Loquat tree is loaded with fruit, these should be ready in May. |
Raised bed planted with lacinato kale, ruby and bright lights swiss chard. Seedling of radish, collard greens, beets and carrots. |
Tatsoi, beets and collard green sprouts (I think) |
More Speckles lettuce and Lolla Rossa lettuce |
Leaf lettuce that bolted in the heat. I will let this go to seed head and then save the seeds. |
More Tatsoi, most have shot up seed heads so I may need to plant out more seedlings now that the rains have come. |
Onions and swiss chard I pulled from the bed along the driveway |
Little Gem Romaine and Lolla Rossa lettuce from the bed along the driveway |
Look at the beauty. We have seen the mudslides here and all,of the rain. We have freezing snow this morning. I love your Pinterest pins, especially the little felted fairy dolls. Do you collect them?
ReplyDeleteHi Ann, no I don't collect the felted fairies, but I have them on the list to try to make. They are so sweet and I would love to try my hand at felting.
