Cucumber forming on the vine in my garden.
I am pleased with the growth; it seems like the plant is getting enough sun.
Not to myself: start a bit earlier next year. But as the weather has been cold, I never got going until late in the spring with my cucumber this year.

A lavender plant visited by a bumble bee in the early morning.
I propagate my lavender plants from cuttings and enjoy a limitless supply of lavender in my garden.
I did make a YouTube video if you are curious about my no-nonsense approach to propagating lavender.

Pepper harvest in preparation for making my pepper salsa.
I posted an article on making my Scotch Bonnet Salsa and Sauce, but any peppers can be used. YouTube video here.
For this batch, I will use jalapenos, vindaloo and Padron peppers.

San Marzano tomatoes are a favourite and make the best sauce.
I am planning a how-to-grow guide and will most likely publish it later this spring.

Cherry tomatoes growing in pots and containers were among my first loves in the garden.
And I am happy to report that the feelings are still there.
Here is a bunch of beautiful sungold cherry tomatoes showing a slight kiss of that golden colour that will soon light up our garden.
