A is for Apple and Asparagus


Today I planted a Pixie Crisp Apple tree and 2 year old root stock of Mary Washington asparagus.
The large leafed plants are red potatoes. I've got red, white and purple potatoes coming along nicely. Broccoli, cauliflower, and carrots are doing well and being harvested as they get ready. I've got a couple of sweet peppers almost ready to pick. It's been a mild winter. Today Fletch came over to help get lawn equipment ready for summer mowing and while he was here he cleaned out the gutters. Hooray for a helpful, loving son!
