So, here it is in late April, its time for a gardening update at Rosey Disposition!

So far this year, we have done a lot, from the sod, to pavers (post still to come), and many things indoors.  Amongst all of this has been more gardening.  You may remember our last gardening updates, here and lastly here .  You may remember in the first update we did, our Avocado plant hadn’t made it, we have an update on that!

Lets start with our updated Veggie garden.  This year, we went with three versions of tomato plants, five cucumber plants (yes…5), basil and cilantro again, as well as two different bell pepper varieties, and we recently planted a greek oregano plant.  One thing you will notice, is that the rosemary has made it through the Florida “winter” and is huge! Feel free to flip to the old posts to compare this year to last year, but it seems to be doing better, mainly because we planted before the dead heat of summer and rainy season.

So, remember a few weeks ago, we gave an update on our garden?  Well, here is another small one.  It involves our Cucumber plant.

Here is our cucumber, or so we thought.

So, we found it funny how the “cucumbers” looked for the past few weeks and I thought maybe I just misremembered what cucumbers looked like when growing.  This weekend we went out to a green market and I saw a basket of Okra, and it looked surprisingly like our cucumbers.  It got me curious and we stopped in at the nursery we bought these from, and saw some big Okra plants there, so thats what we have!

Luckily we explained how we bought a plant that had a “cucumber” tag on it, and they gave us a free new cucumber plant, apparently someone thought it’d be funny to do this.  Now we have this huge Okra plant and have no idea what to do with it.  Any ideas??

Anyway, here is our new cucumber plant, and we purchased an additional tomato plant incase our current one doesn’t make it through its problems.
