Hi!
I was shooting photos of the plants last weekend and now that I have my new banana plants, I'll be shooting photos of those too. When done, I'll start a new thread in the veggie section and post the photos. Just watch for a thread titled "Trax Veggies 2014".
Btw, I'll label the photos to make it easier to see what each of the plants are. Except the Beefmaster, Brandywine, and Cherry tomatoes. Those got mixed so I don't really know which plant is which.
It stormed last night but it's only overcast today (and looking stormy). It's 82*F and that was the high with more storms possible tonight.
I got 2 new banana plants (2-3' tall) and a Voodoo Lily to plant today. Since the Voodoo Lily's a corpse flower, I think I'll pot that one so I can move it when the flower starts stinking everything up, LOL. The bananas will def be in-ground, one in full-sun, the dwarf red banana plant in the shade. It doesn't tolerate a lot of sunlight.
John, good to hear that!

We have had some very nice weather, but it was really muggy for a couple of days, we are not used to that here! today was extremely windy all day as the presure was changing, we were supposed to get the rain Randy was talking about but nothing yet. We are nearly done our current round of renovations thank goodness! I have so much sorting and unpacking and organising to do, a few days of rain would really help with that!! keep me in the house and give me a break from watering. But then again we are doing a giant yard clean up this weekend, lot's of construction stuff to go to the landfill, so it would be nice to do that and stay dry.

had two bad days of humidity and horrendous thunderstorms, but cool air came in last night, and now sunny with a pleasant breeze, no humidity....just a perfect day......its to stay like this and be 80's for the weekend, before the muggies and thunderstorms come back....
73F going up to 77 this afternoon......
Sunny with hazy skies......the humidity is starting to build up.......
Looks like we are settling into a long stretch of hot muggy weather.......
Will probably see thunderstorms develop later on today due to daytime heating.....

The rain you had there caught up to us Randy. Poured last night, then on and off all day. Has really cooled off and the humidity is gone which I am glad of. I do not like it.
John..... we have apples from New Zealand in the store now, even though they come from half way around the world we look forward to them because they are (nearly) as good as our fresh ones in the fall. this way we get good apples right from June through winter. Spring all you can get is apples that have been held over from the fall and while they are all right, they are not as good as fresh!

another fine sunny day here, hopefully typical winter weather patterns are here to stay for a while......cool westerly wind blowing which is keeping the temps down......71F
Janet we're in the midst of our peak apple growing season here too, there seems to be a different variety every season lol. We can't get NZ apples here as they have a disease called fire blight therefore they're banned as AUS. doesn't have this problem......I had about a dozen apples on my small tree until the possum family found them!!...they left me one which was very kind of them
