Yep, tying the tomatoes top priority on my list because we are supposed to get maybe some high winds with the rain tomorrow. I'm in taking a break, I just finished watering the pots that needed it, and I'm halfway through the spraying. Stopped to pick 9 ripe tomatoes, and squashed a big green fruitworm eating some green cherry tomatoes. Ugh, hate those things! Grumbling
Yesterday is gone. Tomorrow has not yet come. We have only today. Let us begin.

Happy fathers day! I hope everyone here has good memories of dad. My dad loved gardening and fixing things and figuring things out- mechanical brain. . Our kids live a couple hours apart from each other so I didn't try to round them up for today. I guess I do need to make Mark a decent dinner.

So hot here. I spent a couple hours strictly in my shady moister side of the house, still dripping sweat. I dug up something which I am guessing may be a sweet flag or similar? It grows like a small version of siberian iris and has been sickly looking where I had it, in a dry spot. So now it's in some moister places to see how that goes. I have pics.. on thinking.. I am pretty sure it's Sweet flag Ogon
Japanese Sweet Flag (Acorus gramineus 'Ogon')
Plant it and they will come.

Summer arrived a few minutes ago. For those of us in North America except those in Atlantic and Newfoundland time zones, the date was late on June 20. East of here, you were already on June 21 when summer began.

At any rate. to go to the new thread, go to The thread "Support For A Healthy Lifestyle in Summer 2021" in Sandbox forum
