My Zone 9 Garden in December

Cabbage, Broccoli, Cauliflower, Romain and Bibb lettuce. The weather has been perfect; chilly but nothing like north of Florida.

Miscellaneous Fooling Around

Cassia in the fall

Most people do not get to see our beautiful Cassia except neighbors. It bllooms for about 3 weeks in the fall and is really a favorite. It is one of those shrubs that is easy to prune  so that it takes on the appearance of a small tree. We have a Chaya (Spinach Tree) and an Angel Trumpet that I have pruned the same way. I just like the look.
