Hard Working California Garden

While I have many winter items growing in my garden, some of my summer plants continue to grow.  I found this lovely little purple eggplant tucked under the massive leaves of this aubergine plant.  My hope is that we have just enough warm sunny days to get it to a decent size.  This plant is actually loaded with purple blossoms.  The weekly rains we are having are obviously working wonders.

I just planted a white Gretel eggplant...it looks like it produces clusters of them...sure can't wait to see. Have you ever had one?

These sure look lovely! We are eggplant fans here.

I have planted "cloud-nines" before. I love plants which surprise. The unexpected white eggplant does just that. Enjoy.

Thanks. It has been a busy winter with snow peas and lettuce being harvested daily. I have some beets growing as well.
