Awed and envious. Can’t take credit for the rosemary. Gargantuan pot and one fertilizing. Seems to be a survivor. Anything I grow has to be.

LOL. I used to kill everything I tried to grow. Turns out I was too kind and attentive - too much water/etc. Benign neglect works better for most stuff.

Dwarf banana & turmeric in the Sonroom are huge. Turmeric is crowding the pot. Need to take it out and harvest the rhizomes. Rosemary--killed due not watered frequently enough. Orchid soldiers on. Double red Hibiscus is a treat. 2 gardenias died due watering deficiency. 3 big tomatoes brought in, in big pots . . . lots ripening. Not much flavor even though heirlooms, though. Curious.

Lots of baby aloe's need repotted & given away. Airplane plant doing well. LOL. Banana should start bearing fruit any week now. Gratifying when there was a light snow in the shade when I got up.
