Here’s what the new raised garden looked like three weeks ago.

Everything in our new deck box is doing fantastically well. The cherry tomato plant had fallen over while we were in Virginia, but thankfully it didn’t break and now it’s staked. I’ve noticed several flowers on the tomato plant and as you can see, it is growing like mad.

New additions include a ‘sungold’ tomato plant and a curry plant—a spice plant that smells just like curry powder, very interesting!

Postscript: as Leandra was writing this a major thunderstorm was coming through the area, complete with high winds, hail, and a very scared Riesling.  Unfortunately, the ‘sweetie’ cherry tomato was bent in half and had to be removed.  Hopefully it will grow back quickly! – eric
