My raspberry bush is finally (in late JULY!) starting to give me raspberries. It gave them up in early June last year, but it was also in a brighter spot, so I’ll move it back to its old location next year. I’m just happy to be getting any from a container box. Also, raspberries are not native to hot climates so this bush is a heat tolerant southern variety. Maybe next year I’ll take a stab at blueberries.
In spite of tomatoes being a huge disappointment this year, it seems bell peppers are making a late showing to impress me. They’re also more tolerant to the bugs, and aren’t as finicky about full sunlight (something that’s hard for me to provide in a compact city yard). Here’s a yellow bell pepper, followed by a green bell pepper. Cilantro Lime Chicken fajitas are just begging to be made…
