Plant of the Day
Monday 23 October 2023
The vigorous deciduous climber Parthenocissus quinquefolia (Virginia creeper, American ivy, American woodbine, false grape, five-leaved ivy, wild wood vine) provides vivid autumn colour. Here the stems look great tumbling from this tree in a garden setting but care has to be taken as this is classified in the U.K. as an invasive non-native plants.

GRAPES SOON 😱🍇
the easiest and tastiest thing to do with these is to shove them in a jar, mush em up a bit, and cover them with some bourbon. leave for at least a month and you will have the MOST delicious extraction.

Just realize I haven’t been updating for sometime.
Not gonna specify. I believe they’re all recognizable for PvZh players.
(And I ship Sour Grapes & Sergeant Strongberry in head-canon. :D. Mention this because what I post the next time is probably 2 berries kissing(????

6/27/24 ~ Has anyone grown Atomic Grape tomatoes? I wasn’t sure when they are ripe. I had ones on the vine that turned a bit yellow but were starting to have bad spots on them. So I picked these super early I believe😅 but I feel they’ve been on the plant for weeks.
So I’m hoping these will ripen sitting on the counter like so like other tomatoes 😋🍅

With all the rain and the sudden streak of warm weather, there was an explosion of green this week! 💚
Pictured are new mulberry leaves, wild grape leaf buds, and new black locust leaves and racemes.

5/5/24 ~ Last transplant of the day. Corbaci & Atomic Grape. No more. For awhile 😅
I haven’t had the extra time with work and school to treat them as I should. So before I start school back in a couple of weeks — I’m taking care of business 😆
Getting these babies to where they need to be 💪🏻
