The Back Forty


Here in South Florida, we grow in the reverse of you all up North - Winter is the best planting and gardening season. It's cool enough to grow things like lettuce, up till April or May when it becomes too hot and humid for that sort of thing. That tall, grassy stuff around the edges is lemon grass, not neglect. :-)

Now that Arctic blast is coming our way tonight. Crap.

I never even thought of Fl that way before - but I guess the hot heat of your summer would make it difficult for a garden huh? Do you have to water it a lot? It is so nice to get first hand information from all over the world. Can't wait to see the picture of the butterfly - how exciting.
