Handsome Hombre gave me a list of what he wanted to grow in his garden. His job demands make it hard for him to get it planted and he doesn't seem to mind if I throw the plants and seeds into the ground for him.

Today saw a row of Pontiac Red potatoes go in and a row of Red Russian kale seedlings that volunteered.
I have Summer Dance cucumbers started as well as assorted greens.
In my garden I planted a bunch of onion seedlings. Ooof! That is hard on the back.
It was a good day for moving seedlings. Very little sun loading and high humidity...and the kale still wilted. Rain expected tonight. It will recover.

Looks like a good selection, ERJ. Kale is something I have never tried, mostly because I detest it.
ReplyDeleteThat meme is spot on.
According to Senator John Kennedy (from the Great State of Louisiana) "Kale tastes like I'd rather be hungry."
