Golden Raspberries, black raspberries, wild plums (which all disappeared(I suspect squirrels)), hazelnuts (squirrels again), gooseberries, blueberries - the liioulu with paper Jul 7, 15:18 6

just herbs this year. I didn't want to mess with container vegetables, and we're pulling up the whole backyard of the new place. -- nm - Reagen Jul 7, 15:13 2
- although come to think of it, radishes have a short enough season that I could get some in - Reagen Jul 7, 15:23 1
  - I've got chives. Radishes never worked out. I just got skinny roots. -- nm - the liioulu with paper Jul 7, 15:42
I don't have a yard, but the gf is growing kung pao chilis, Thai basil, and rosemary in pots -- nm - Roger More Jul 7, 15:11
i have a lemon tree i grew from seed, but i'm sure it's sterile. i have herbs and a few cherry tomatoes in pots as well. - Andie Jul 7, 15:11 8
- lemon trees are insect pollinated, so if it's indoors, that's why. -- nm - Reagen Jul 7, 15:14 7
  - are you sure? (it hasn't even flowered, but i thought limes and lemons were indoor-able.) -- nm - Andie Jul 7, 15:15 6
    - positive. - Reagen Jul 7, 15:17 5
      - well, still, they have to grow flowers first, right? -- nm - Beryllium Jul 7, 15:18
      - interesting. if it ever flowers i'll hand pollinate. - Andie Jul 7, 15:18 3
        
        I wouldn't mind a little hand pollination, if you know what I mean. nm - Dignan Jul 7, 15:21 2
        
        say it louder, I think there's a middle aged korean woman in a cave who didn't hear you -- nm - Beryllium Jul 7, 15:21 1
        
        No, she heard me. I just got a (filthy) text. nm - Dignan Jul 7, 15:23
Three types of tomatoes, all of which have tomatoes ripening on the vines, and red and green peppers and jalepenos which are not producing anything - Stephen Jul 7, 15:11
