m(elancholy),

It’s raining and is supposed to rain for a few days. Kind of lovely and matching my mood. The garden looks happy, though.

Caaaabbage! And orange roses. They’re here.

A peek into the leaves reveals squash and their ginormous flowers, and a green Roma.

You mean the cabbage? I'm not really sure, as I'm... um, not quite sure what variety it is. Hmm. :)

Also, I'm kind of sad, because yesterday afternoon I discovered they all have those horrible caterpillars that eat cabbage to death.

Love the growing garden! Oh, poor cabbage leaves. Well you can get rid of the little worms by using a product called "BT", available at you local well stocked garden center. It kills the worms and isn't toxic to people.
