Here's an update on our Pot-O-Carrots that we planted on 14th April. It's a 12 gallon (43 liter) container and it's coming along nicely although on hot, dry days in needs a LOT of watering. Plants are now well established and tops are all at least 12 inches (30cm) tall. Spacing looks good and have done no thinning. Roots are just starting to fill out, so it will be a while yet before harvest.

In early 2023, I took 2 cuttings from a rose plant at Jubilee Hospital gardens. I propagated the cuttings in our front yard. I grew them for my parents. Dad passed away before any of the cuttings propagated had matured enough to bloom. This year, it's blooming a lot. This is one of the roses from that propagation.

Started four pots of cat grass for my (you guessed it) cat. Meant to stagger then for succession planting, but accidentally gave them their first watering all at once. Decided they were far enough up today for me to make the first sacrifice to the beast.

Some wild roses I saw on my walk in the wetlands on Friday. Hope you all enjoy your Sunday!
