In all of it's glory.

Another volunteer tobacco plant. Once you have grown tobacco they start showing up on there own after a while.

That's Leonotis leonurus growing center frame, to the left of the fig tree.

I have been busy building a new Actively Aerated Compost Tea Brewer.

I am still tweaking the air lift pumps trying to get the most out of the 38 watt pump and air diffusers. Nothing like combining, Microbiology, plumbing, gardening and general fun.

If you want to see the progressive construction & testing photo gallery for this project go to this link.

Here is a link to a little movie I had fun making the other day, showing the brewer in action… before I added the nutrients and compost.

I think you will need a QT plug-in for your browser to view it.

That's it for the garden today!

Love the wonderful vibrant colors in your photos. The bright color of the amaryllis makes me think of a sexy broad with that color lipstick and heels on. Man I'm a sicko.

Figs! Nothing like fresh figs.

+ I fed all of my plants the other weekend. What a difference that makes. Everything is starting to take off with the warm weather and constant watering. I will take some pictures this weekend.

Asparagus has grown up and out into a little trees. Maybe next year I will be able to eat some.

I hear you loud and clear and that is what nature has in mind 2B sure. You would have been hypnotized by the perfume that the Angel's Trumpets (Brugmansia) gave off in the atrium in the evening last October. If you ever get a chance to take in it's fragrance on a fall evening I highly recommend it.

Good to hear that your plants are eating well.

Looking forward to seeing that update when you get around to it.
