Sometimes you win one ...

The doctor said I should be kind to my joints, so no more digging in the garden.  Container gardening allows me to continue pottering in my yard. So off to Lowe's I went to  shop for pots and vegetable plants. I bought two medium-sized pots and two young bush tomatoes (meant for patios).  

Update

Started writing this in 2013 and finishing it up in 2020. LOL.

I believed the tomato plants did well and I had a decent harvest.  Hence the title of this post. The pots are still around and I  have plans to put them to good use.

My love affair with jasmines

The intense fragrance of the Jasmine Sambac is intoxicating. I kept a quart-sized pot indoor because of the Maryland winter. Unfortunately, the indoor environment was not to its liking and it died. Undeterred, I bought another pot because its fragrance had so enchanted me. Despite my care, it also died. Lesson learned: no more Jasmine Sambac for me

Meanwhile, I had planted a White Jasmine. It flourished and, in time, got out of control extending into my lily patch. A hard prune solved the problem.

Update: September 30, 2020

In an effort to downsize my garden and make it more manageable, I removed the White Jasmine several years ago.
