Sheds in snow

 Jacie

Arcadia Broccoli seedlings.

 Molly our adopted stray.

Fruit trees in 18 inch pots.

 Dwarf trees grow well in the

confines of a relatively small pot,

 producing some of the sweetest

 fruit anywhere.

Our B&B rose cuttings grow in the

 bottom half of a gallon milk jug

and its dome is the top of a 2 liter

 coke bottle. B&B comes from a

Disney cartoon that features a rose

 in a glass dome.

We are grafting tomatoes this January.  

Here is a close up of the graft site

 showing the silicone clip that

holds the graft while the wound heals.

Five Star lettuce mix growing in old gutters in our

unheated greenhouse.

This mix does well in the cold and low light

conditions of winter.

 Here is a baby Barbary Fig cactus; grown from seed in the seedroom.
