I finished clearing out the tomato plants from the two brick planters and dumped the debris.
It’s almost 100 out there now, according to our thermometer in the SHADE on our deck, so I’m opting to wait to try to use the weed whacker until about 5:00 or so, when hopefully, it will be a bit cooler. :0)
In the meantime. I wanted to share how the elephant ears are doing!
They don’t have too much farther to go until you won’t be able to see the windows in the garage behind them. I’m thrilled.
They are truly happy in this pot, with enough sun, the irrigation system, and a bit of protection from the winds we get up here.
When the weather is such that the leaves are spent after freezing, I’m going to just cut them off level with the soil and then cover them thickly with mulch, hoping to get them through the winter and able to thrive again next year.
