The tree to the left is an avocado tree.
Last summer I planted mango and avocado pits, and this summer I have mango and avocado growing. They are big enough to actually start giving a little privacy in my small backyard.
Below you see my mango tree and several avocado trees behind it.
The herbs are growing like weeds, but it sure is a good thing, because cooking with fresh herbs makes everything so tasty.
Parsley
Rosemary - lots of rosemary. Tonight we are having my oldest son's favorite rosemary chicken.
Finally my husband's favorite, two huge pepper bushes with habanero peppers, and they are so spicy that I have to wear gloves when handling them.
Do you have a vegetable garden this summer?

Beautiful shots, JR.
ReplyDeleteLooks like your gardening is going well! My family does plant a garden, but we get much more from my father who plants a huge garden - and is much better at growing stuff than we are.
ReplyDeleteYou know, not ONE of the seeds that I planted this year even sprouted! Our new house does have lots of trees though, Lemon, Orange, Plum, Lime, & Meyer Lemon and the neighbors have tons of veggies that they bring over.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see your first crop of avocados!
Thank you Cheryl! I am beginning to play around with my new camera a bit.
ReplyDeleteLeigh my dad has a huge garden as well, but he lives in Europe, so we are no longer enjoying it. I sure wish he lived closer, as I love his summer potatoes.
Gween, that is fantastic that you have so many fruit trees.....ahh...yummy! We have a lot of shade as well, but after I dug out my vegetable bed, it seems to be going better. Now, if I had a big yard....
you have such a beautiful garden
