How are your gardens and plants doing?

Dear users, dear authors,
are your gardens and plants doing well?

Dear Josefa,

autumn is setting in in my garden. But there are still plenty of things to discover. It’s not as colorful as it used to be, but it’s still pleasant and uplifting. I still have a few things to harvest:

Tomatoes —they still need to ripen so I can save seeds for next year



Peppers —this is my first year growing the round, thick-fleshed Hungarian variety. When they’re fully ripe, they’re bright red. You might know them sweet-and-sour pickled in a jar.



And there are still a few autumn beauties to admire among the flowers as well. This hydrangea is champagne-colored at the start of blooming, then turns pink, and gradually deepens in color. Today I cut a few blooms and placed them in a vase without water. They make beautiful dried flowers.

Warm regards, Ina

A lot has been happening here. We started building our little shed last week. Now I just have to paint it and furnish it. Today I went to the hardware store to buy paint and picked up three little plants while I was there. I don’t have any pictures yet

Hi Josefa,

our garden is soaking up the sunshine, but it’s thirstier than ever. In return, it’s rewarding us with beautiful hibiscus and lily blooms, as well as juicy tomatoes. We’ll have to start preparing it for fall soon, even though it’s hard to believe with these temperatures *laughs*

Greetings to everyone, Anna

Wow, Ina, you have such a beautiful garden!
Our raspberries are still going strong and giving us about 500 grams every day. And on the balcony, the lettuce is sprouting, along with a few strawberries here and there. Everything else is already getting into the fall spirit.

Petra, a little shed like that is a great thing. Do you plan to sit in it, or just use it to store tools?

Greetings from me to everyone

Monika, it’s going to be a little cottage for me (us). It’s going to be a real “she shed.” All nice and white with a shabby chic look, and I’ll be able to store all my flea market finds and street finds there. And knit. And look out and enjoy the garden. 



This is just one of the apple trees in our garden that’s bearing plenty of fruit!



There will be an abundance of quinces, too!

  

We’re still enjoying a few beautiful flowers! Unfortunately, the weeds are still sprouting with great vigor! But no picture of them—we don’t want to reward them!

Schnuckelina, how do you manage to arrange the pictures like that? Unfortunately, it doesn’t work for me.

My “plants” on my balcony are doing well.

@Wollbaerli, I cropped the images to a 1:1 aspect ratio, so all sides are the same length. Just insert the image right after the text. It’s a nice change from the usual landscape format.

Best regards, Ina
