VALENTINE BABIES

by Robin

I wanted to give you a taste of what is growing on my nursery table.  I just realized there was more but at least you get the general idea of what will be coming this spring.

Red Potatoes!  This year, we're going to try potatoes again but in containers.  So far, so good.  I've done my research and hope to be successful this time.

Red Tomatoes! Gonna make some salsa this year. Lots of healthy greens.

Stuck on Seed. This happened frequently with my Zucchini babies.

Acorn Squash.  These seeds actually came from a store-bought acorn squash.  They sat on my microwave for several months.  I had no idea if they would work or not and certainly the did!

Lettuce.  I couldn't remember if this was the red oak leaf or the variety pack.   It just popped up through the night.

Okra.  I think my family is still sick of okra after having a banner year 2 yrs ago. Remember my 11 ft+ okra tree?  I only had a small handful of okra last year because my chickens destroyed a lot.  This year, I hope to do it somewhere in the middle.

Stay warm and hope everyone in the AL/GA/SC area keeps their power on.
