Gardening Update

Way back in April, I published THIS SPONSORED POST about packets I received from Mary’s Heirloom Seeds. Would you like an update on the Lemon Cucumber? 😉 First off, I would like to mention I experienced EXCELLENT germination rates. Most plants were given to family and friends, keeping only a couple for my small vegetable garden.

Take a look at these beauties! From only two plants, there are plenty of cukes to enjoy sliced and in every kind of salad and sandwich imaginable! We have also become cucumber philanthropists! Our neighbors love them, too!

Can you see all the blooms? This is a workhorse of a plant!
