For some reason, I cannot edit this photo and make it pretty. But there ARE flowers on my jade plants. It happens "randomly." I hope they live long and prosper. My tomatoes are still alive and still green. My snow pea plants are also yielding flowers and should bear me some delicate vegetables soon. How does your garden grow?

Is that unusual for this time of year?

@TheHorse Yes they usually die in the winter.

I gather it's been a tad chilly in Ohio. I was playing music with my friend from Marion yesterday.

We don’t do gardens because we are too busy in the summer to take care of it. I hope you get lots of yummy food from your plants

@TheHorse Right I am sure you would be and if you get more than 6 you will be even happier.

@Tina30219 We'll see what happens! I want my blasted tomatoes to turn red before I pick them.

They are pretty little flowers. My poinsettia is hanging in there at the moment.

@TheHorse This is from around Christmas time but it looks about the same.

We can see the pretty flowers. I don't have a garden. Just a flower garden full of weeds. Have a good week.

Sigh. If I were your neighbor, I'd come over, turn the soil upside down, and plant some bulbs. And maybe even some succulents, to see if they can survive in Ohio.

Oh that's pretty! I've never seen a Jade plant flowering before. I don't have anything planted right now except for a tomato plant that came up out by the chicken coop. I have it covered up with a milk jug turned upside down. I don't really look forward to it surviving with all of these 20 degree nights we have been having here, but I tried to save it.

Will the chickens trample all over it?

@TheHorse No, it is on the outside of the coop. They would eat it if given the chance, and tomato plants are toxic to chickens.

@kareng I have heard they're not the best thing for kids either. Some preschools don't allow them.

I wish I have a garden. I have indoor plants, one withered. I am thinking of growing herbs like rosemary and basil leaves.
