Sorry to be MIA. I had a health scare. I'm OK xcept for a lingering stitch in my right side. Gradually getting better.
My lemon tree lost it's ID. I can only think it's in the right spot as It's doing the best of all my citrus. I haven't fertilized it except for occasional contributions from the dogs and It grows and produces abundantly every year.
It's chillly here now. The okra has slowed down. Lots of cilantro which is nice as it doesn't last when I buy it at the store. Cherry tomatoes coming. I have to beat the birds to them as they ripen. A hybiscus of thte kind used for teas has appeared as a volunteer and it's beautiful - burgandy red.
My surprise success this year has been gac plants. I had a failure with them several years ago; tried seeds from and eBay seller this year and have about two dozen plants growing like crazy. I've never had the fruit but it's supposed to be very healthy. Maybe next year.
Sorry I can't be helpful on the lemon. My secret is luck!!
