We've harvested a lot of herbs, and some tomatoes and a few peppers. Unfortunately I think our season is over... We start a lot earlier in south central FL than most people do, but we will replant a fall garden in August/Sept.
We've had a stupid rat eating our tomatoes and peppers, and I'm tired of fighting it. We live on a lake with a nature preserve. Thank GOD the garden is at the back of the yard AWAY from my house. We've used our humane trap to catch and relocate one, but haven't gotten this new one yet. Hubby pulled all the green peppers and apparently we didn't ripen them right in the house. They got a really weird rubbery texture. So they went to the compost bin.
My Lemon Verbena came back, which makes me very happy. I love that stuff. I actually have had the same chive plants for four years, and have had a lot more luck with my herbs than I have with my tomatoes and peppers!
