What incredible growth you have... can hardly believe it is the same garden.

Thanks Jan! I can't beleive it either, my parents had a nice garden in NY when I was growing up but they never had enough sun. Here in NM getting enough sun is not a problem, getting enough water can be, luckily we have an irrigation well.

I planted out may 5th and that was a good decision. I did lose a few plants to a late frost on may 20th but was able to replace them.

To garden with not a lot of water, gosh I don't know if I could handle that type of gardening.


Oh what a terrible loss on the peach tree... oh I sure would love to have some of those, I can close my eyes and smell my mom, homemade peach cobbler... oh the makes my mouth water.....

All very nice! Just beautiful. I am a huge peach fan. Nothing better on earth than a tree ripened peach!

I hope your tree can sprout a replacement below the break...

I snapped. It's just a branch that needed to be pruned anyway, the tree will be fine.
